Continuing the discussion from W3TC after EE wpfc Install:
I’ve struggled with getting a high-performance blog that would scale well set up on EC2, so finding EasyEngine made my week! Many thanks.
I installed the EE Basic configuration without reading all about caching - my bad I know - but after doing more work on the site than I want to recreate, I realized I need to update my installation from the Basic to the WPFC configuration.
I did: ee site edit example.com [substituting my site name for example.com of course]
and changed the line: “#WPSINGLE BASIC NGINX CONFIGURATION” to “WPSINGLE FAST CGI NGINX CONFIGURATION”
and
include common/php.conf; to include common/wpfc.conf;
I installed the latest W3TC plugin and configured it as instructed in the referenced post and tested that it’s working per the instructions in another post.
Questions:
-
Is there anything else I need to do to optimize caching?
-
What goes in the W3TC field: “Nginx server configuration file path” ?
-
Does it make any difference whether page caching is enabled in W3TC?
Thanks in advance!
