Vous cherchez un moyen de configurer WP Super Cache sur votre site WordPress ?
Les moteurs de recherche comme Google considèrent désormais la vitesse du site comme un facteur de classement important. WP Super Cache peut rendre votre site plus rapide, booster le référencement de votre site, et améliorer l’expérience des utilisateurs/utilisatrices de votre site.
Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment installer et configurer WP Super Cache sur votre site.
![How to Install and Setup WP Super Cache How to Install and Setup WP Super Cache](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/how-to-install-and-setup-wp-super-cache.png)
Qu’est-ce que WP Super Cache et pourquoi l’utiliser ?
WP Super Cache est l’une des extensions de mise en cache WordPress les plus populaires et les plus performantes. C’est une extension gratuite et elle compte plus de 2 millions d’installations activées.
WP Super Cache fait une copie de chaque page de votre site sous le formulaire d’un fichier HTML statique. Ainsi, lorsque quelqu’un visite votre site, il reçoit rapidement la version copiée au lieu de générer l’intégralité du site à partir de zéro.
En conséquence, la vitesse et les performances de votre site WordPress s’améliorent considérablement. Le plugin de mise en cache passe de nombreuses étapes en coulisses pour s’assurer que vos internautes n’ont pas à attendre que la page s’ouvre.
Avec un site à chargement rapide, vous pouvez voir un coup de pouce dans votre référencement WordPress et dans le classement des moteurs de recherche. Google donne un avantage significatif aux sites plus rapides, car il utilise la vitesse du site comme facteur de classement.
En outre, vous améliorerez l’expérience des internautes sur votre site. Un site qui se charge rapidement incite les gens à le visiter plus souvent. Ainsi, vous obtenez plus d’engagement et de conversions car les utilisateurs/utilisatrices passent plus de temps sur les pages.
Êtes-vous prêt à configurer WP Super Cache sur votre site ? Découvrons-le.
Réglages de WP Super Cache – la méthode la plus simple
La première chose à faire est d’installer et d’activer le plugin WP Super Cache sur votre site. Pour plus de détails, vous pouvez suivre notre guide sur l’installation d’une extension WordPress.
Dès qu’il est activé, WP Super Cache vous informe que la mise en cache n’est pas activée sur votre site pour le moment.
Pour activer le cache, allez dans Réglages » WP Super Cache. Ensuite, sous l’onglet Facile, allez-y et cliquez sur l’option » Mise en cache activée « . Une fois que vous avez fait cela, cliquez sur le bouton » Mettre à jour l’état « .
![Enable caching in WP Super Cache Enable caching in WP Super Cache](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/enable-caching-in-wp-super-cache.png)
Après avoir activé le cache, vous devez défiler vers le bas jusqu’à la section Cache Tester.
Une fois arrivé, vous devez cliquer sur le bouton « Tester le cache » pour vérifier s’il fonctionne.
![Test the cache Test the cache](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/test-the-cache.png)
WP Super Cache va chercher votre site WordPress deux fois et comparer les horodatages des deux pages. Si les deux horodatages correspondent, cela signifie que la mise en cache fonctionne sur votre site maintenant.
WP Super Cache Advanced Setup (Configuration avancée de WP Super Cache)
WP Super Cache est une puissante extension WordPress qui est livrée avec de nombreuses options avancées. Ces options peuvent encore améliorer les performances de votre site et fournir plus de contrôle sur la façon dont le plugin mettra en cache votre site.
Activer la mise en cache
Pour configurer WP Super Cache avec des options avancées, allez dans l’onglet « Avancé » de l’extension WP Super Cache. Cliquez ensuite sur la case à cocher » Activer la mise en cache « .
![WP Super Cache advanced settings WP Super Cache advanced settings](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/wp-super-cache-advanced-settings.png)
En dessous de la mise en cache, vous trouverez des options pour la « Méthode de distribution du cache ». Nous vous recommandons d’utiliser l’option « Simple » si vous êtes débutant et n’avez pas l’habitude de modifier les fichiers de votre serveur.
Activer la compression dans WP Super Cache
La compression permet à WP Super Cache de servir les fichiers mis en cache sous forme de fichiers compressés, ce qui améliore le temps de chargement. Ces fichiers sont plus petits et peuvent être téléchargés par les navigateurs plus rapidement.
Pour activer la compression, défilez vers le bas jusqu’à la section « Divers » et cochez la case « Compresser les pages pour qu’elles soient servies plus rapidement aux internautes ».
![Miscellaneous advanced cache settings Miscellaneous advanced cache settings](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/miscellaneous-advanced-cache-settings.png)
Activer la mise en cache dynamique
Si vous souhaitez conserver certaines parties d’une page web dynamiques pendant la mise en cache, WP Super Cache propose une option à cet effet.
Pour activer cette option, vous pouvez vous rendre dans la section « Avancé » et cliquer sur la case à cocher « Activer la mise en cache dynamique ».
![Enable dynamic caching Enable dynamic caching](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/enable-dynamic-caching-1.png)
L’activation de la mise en cache dynamique est utile dans certaines modifications, en particulier pour les pages dont le contenu change fréquemment. Par exemple, vous pouvez accélérer les pages contenant des publicités en permettant la mise en cache dynamique.
Configurer le délai d’expiration et le ramassage des déchets
WP Super Cache vous permet de configurer le délai d’expiration et la fréquence de suppression des pages mises en cache sur votre serveur.
Pour commencer, il suffit de défiler jusqu’à la section » Délai d’expiration et collecte de déchets » sous l’onglet Avancé pour la configurer.
![Set up Expiry time and garbage collection Set up Expiry time and garbage collection](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/set-up-expiry-time-and-garbage-collection.png)
Le délai de mise en cache indique à l’extension de retirer la page mise en cache et de procéder à une nouvelle mise en cache. L’extension le définira à 1800 secondes par défaut, ce qui est idéal pour un site à fort trafic.
Cependant, si vous avez un site nouveau qui n’est pas très fréquenté, 3600 secondes est un bon point de départ.
En outre, vous pouvez planifier une heure à laquelle l’extension vérifiera la présence de fichiers mis en cache périmés et les supprimera.
Spécifiez les pages que vous ne souhaitez pas voir mises en cache
Par défaut, l’extension met en cache toutes les pages de votre site. Cela peut augmenter la taille de vos fichiers de cache et utiliser plus de ressources. Cependant, WP Super Cache vous permet d’ajouter des pages que vous ne souhaitez pas voir mises en cache.
Vous pouvez défiler vers le bas jusqu’à la section ‘Chaînes d’URL rejetées’ dans l’onglet Avancé pour commencer. Dans la zone de texte, saisissez la chaîne d’URL des pages que vous ne souhaitez pas que le plugin mette en cache.
Par exemple, si vous avez un magasin e-commerce, alors vous pouvez exclure les pages que les internautes ne visitent pas souvent et enregistrer les ressources du serveur. Il peut s’agir de la page de commande, de la page de compte et de la page de remerciement.
![Add page URLs to remove from caching Add page URLs to remove from caching](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/add-page-urls-to-remove-from-caching.png)
Lorsque vous avez terminé, n’oubliez pas de cliquer sur le bouton « Enregistrer les chaînes ».
Configurer un CDN avec WP Super Cache
La plupart des sites à contenu servent un grand nombre de fichiers statiques à chaque demande de page.
Cela inclut les fichiers JavaScript, les images, les feuilles de style, et plus encore. Contrairement à vos publications WordPress qui sont générées dynamiquement par PHP, ces fichiers peuvent être servis à l’aide d’un service de réseau de diffusion de contenu (CDN).
Un CDN est un réseau de serveurs répartis géographiquement qui aident à diffuser rapidement du contenu à vos internautes. Pour plus de détails, consultez notre infographie sur les raisons pour lesquelles vous avez besoin d’un CDN.
Note: Réglages d’un CDN avec WP Super Cache est un peu technique et nécessitera une certaine expérience avec les CDN. Si vous préférez une méthode plus simple, alors CloudFlare est un fournisseur CDN gratuit qui est facile à configurer. Consultez notre Réglage sur la façon de configurer le CDN gratuit de CloudFlare sur votre site WordPress.
Pour configurer le CDN avec WP Super Cache, cliquez sur l’onglet CDN et cochez la case à côté de l’option ‘Enable CDN Support’.
Saisissez maintenant votre URL hors site, qui sera l’URL de votre zone d’extraction. Une zone d’extraction indique au CDN où trouver vos fichiers et comment les servir à vos utilisateurs/utilisatrices. Par exemple, vous pouvez saisir ce qui suit : https://cdn.wpbeginner.com
![Enable CDN support Enable CDN support](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/enable-cdn-support.png)
Dans le champ CNAMEs supplémentaires, saisissez les autres CNAMEs que vous avez créés pour votre zone pull. Par exemple, http://cdn1.wpbeginner.com,
http://cdn2.wpbeginner.com, http://cdn3.wpbeginner.com.
Vous pouvez laisser les autres réglages par défaut. Dernier point, cochez la case « Passer à/au les URL https pour éviter les erreurs de « contenu mixte » » et enregistrez les modifications.
![Click the skip HTTPS URLs option Click the skip HTTPS URLs option](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/click-the-skip-https-urls-option.png)
Votre site est désormais prêt à diffuser du contenu statique à partir d’un CDN.
Servir un site statique avec WP Super Cache
Le mode de préchargement dans WP Super Cache vous permet de créer des fichiers statiques super cache pour toutes vos publications et pages et de servir un site statique. De cette façon, votre contenu se chargera rapidement chaque fois que quelqu’un visitera votre site.
Un fichier statique en super cache aide à conserver les ressources du serveur, à servir un ancien site qui n’est plus mis à jour et à améliorer la vitesse du site en servant uniquement du contenu statique.
Pour commencer, rendez-vous dans l’onglet ‘Preload’ de l’extension WP Super Cache. Ensuite, vous pouvez définir le temps d’actualisation des fichiers du cache de préchargement.
Par défaut, l’extension le définit à 600 minutes, mais vous pouvez diminuer le temps si vous publiez plusieurs articles chaque jour.
N’oubliez pas que le préchargement de l’ensemble de votre site WordPress prend un certain temps et consomme beaucoup de ressources sur votre serveur. Vous pouvez le laisser à 0 si vous ne voulez pas que vos fichiers statiques expirent jamais à moins que vous n’actualisiez manuellement le cache.
![Preload super cache file Preload super cache file](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/preload-super-cache-file.png)
Confirmez ensuite que vous avez coché la case « Mode de préchargement (ramassage des ordures désactivé, recommandé) ». Vous pouvez également activer les préchargements pour différents identifiés, catégories et autres taxonomies sur votre site.
L’extension offre également une option pour recevoir des alertes par e-mail chaque fois que vos fichiers sont actualisés. Par défaut, il utilisera le réglage » Aucun E-mail « , mais vous pouvez le modifier en choisissant une option dans le menu déroulant.
Lorsque vous avez terminé, enregistrez vos réglages, puis cliquez sur le bouton « Précharger le cache maintenant ».

Hi, I’d like to know whether your guidance to choose mod_rewrite to serve cache files still stands as opposed to using PHP or Legacy Caching. I notice since you published your article, WP Super Cache have changed their own recommendation from mod_rewrite to PHP.

Hi there. I’ve followed this tutorial to a T, and for the most part, everything works correctly, but I’m having two problems. First, when I make changes, they don’t appear on the site if I’m logged in. If I log out, they appear just fine. Second, I’m working on a WPMU network, and I only have the plugin installed on one site. But it’s caching the other sites on the network as well. How do I stop it from doing that? Thanks!

Hi,
I followed your steps because my site was taking over 5s to load but after setting up the WP Super Cache my site wouldn’t load. At all. It was basic HTML – no content, no pictures, just the header…
So, I guess I’m wondering if there’s a laymen’s guide to literally all the terms you use cause I don’t understand websites or programming and I have a website for a start-up NGO so can’t really pay for any help at this point.
Or maybe you could direct me somewhere that will help me understand all this better? I’m a complete novice and confused easily!
Help!
Pedro Moreira says
Hello,
I have a « conceptual doubt » about WP Super Cache, that I didn´t see answered neither in your site neither in other sites.
The question is: the structure of my site is finished. In basic terms, it is mainly a site of videos of football, which means that from this day on I will gradually add posts (that include the videos that I refered) and pages (of the teams).
Since that this will be a long and permanent process, I need right now to speed up my site because nowadays is very slow.
My doubt is: when I install and configue this plugin, what does that mean in terms of the updates that I will do in my site (post and pages that I add)?
I mean, if I cache the site today and tomorrow I add a new page or post, what do I have to do in order that these pages or posts will be also cached? – do I just have to require an update of the plugin? If so, how do I do that, is it possible to define that the plugin will update the cache for example once a week?
Thank you!
Best regards.

I’m getting an error on the first step where you need to click on caching on and update. You mentioned the following in your article:
« WP Super Cache will fetch your WordPress site twice and will compare the time stamps of both pages. If the both time stamps match then this means that caching is working on your site now. »
This is the place where I get the error. I get a message that says:
Fetching to prime cache: OK
Fetching first copy of FAILED
Fetching second copy of : FAILED
I would be glad if you could help me out.

My site is a coupon site, so code is included on the coupon so it prints out by itself without lots of other junk that is on the page. If I use WP Super Cache, will that code be lost because it’s now a static page? Will people still be able to click on the coupon to print just the coupon?

You will have to test it out first on your computer or in a staging environment.

Hi, Thank you for this outstandly good article. However, I am facing several issues with WP S. Cache.
The website is : avisdupublic.net
1°) My Home page is a static one. However, when a new article is published, the /home must be changed (new article in the slider and so on). However, it is no the case! Moreover, when I just « update » this static page, by a strange miracle (not so strange because with the update, the cache-page is flushed), the /home becomes « normal ».
2°) From 1°), I decided to tick the Pages, Front page, Is_home in the rejected ones. However no changes appeared in the /home.
Do you have an idea where could be the problem ?

Hi Guys!

I use wordpress and Boozurk theme version 2.02.
I have a little problem and i want little help!
The problem is: when i use my phone and surfing my site, sometimes the theme not switch to mobile view and everything in my site is with wrong view.
I also use WP super cashe plugin. When i activate the cashe and continue surf the site, then the theme not switch to mobile view and show me a desktop view of the site.
When i deactivate WP super cashe plugin and delete the cashe the view of the site on my phone is perfect. The theme switch to mobile view.
Is there any settings of WP super cashe plugin that i have to make, and when i make them the people who surf my site with mobile phones or tablets,
to surf mobile view of the site, not the cashe page of desktop view.
I hope you will understand me! Thank you!
WPBeginner Support says
Borislav, it seems that your theme uses php to detect mobile users and then switches the theme. When you are using WP Super Cache, it displays the standard theme from the cache, so the part where your theme detects and displays mobile theme is not executed. Your theme’s developer can help you better in this regard, or you can also try WP Super Cache’s support tab.

There could be various reasons. There could be a conflict with .htaccess file in the parent directory or a comment missing # sign in your .htaccess file. You better post in plugin’s page under support tab.

WP Super Cache requires that you use custom permalinks. We have a guide on how to enable custom permalinks or SEO friendly URL structure. Basically what you need to do is go to Settings » Permalinks and choose a custom link structure for your articles.

Hi there,
I used W3 Total Cache in the past, but for some reason I started having problems with it. Maybe the reason was a miss-configuration of the Plugin.
Anyway, I decided to allocate all the images and files of my website in a subdomain like files.domain.tld
So now I just want to know something. After applying this steps to my website it will create a cache of the main content of my domain. Posts, Categories, etc…
What about the files in the subdomain, how can I reduce load time of them? Should I apply CloudFlare only on the subdomain or whole website?
The website is: http://www.ridfick.com (if possible take a look of what can be done)
Thanks
Editorial Staff says
The plugin will create a cache of your page content. However, browser caching won’t be setup properly because you have media files in a subdomain.
We don’t use cloudflare, so baring that in mind it would make sense to apply it to the whole site.

Qasim says
Hi,
Thank you so much for this great tutorial, I am just confused on WP super cache CDN settings. Do you need a CDN network like MaxCDN to be used with WP super cache or WP CDN works alone, where you will get the CNAMEs URLs. Also do you recommend using the plugin with cloudflare.
Editorial Staff says
The whole purpose of having CDNs is to utilize third-party cloud servers to reduce the load on your main server. Simply creating cname records on your main server won’t do much good. We don’t use Cloudflare, but you can if you like.

I use W3 Total Cache since my first WP-Project and it works ok. I started with only the basic settings and later I installed server modules like memcache… but a thing that never worked for me is the minification of css. It breaks every theme I ever used.
