WP-Optimize features
Explore all the features of WP-Optimize, the all-in-one speed optimization plugin for WordPress.
Database optimization
-
Clean up and optimize
Cleans up database tables, trackbacks, pingbacks, transients, post revisions, auto draft posts, trashed posts, spam comments and more. Choose what you clean up or click once to optimize it all.
-
Schedule clean ups
Schedule clean-ups so you can set and forget. Choose from daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
-
Premiumfeature
Flexible clean up schedules
Choose the specific time and day when tasks should run (instead of daily, weekly etc.). Schedule different optimizations for different times and spread the server load.
-
Database statistics
See the size of each database table, how many records each one contains and the size of the overhead to be cleared.
-
Premiumfeature
Choice and flexibility
Choose from a number of advanced options, like the ability to optimize individual database tables.
-
Back up before clean-ups
It’s a simple checkbox to back up before clean-ups. If you delete something you shouldn’t, restore it in a couple of clicks with UpdraftPlus.
-
Retain data during clean-ups
Retain a set number of weeks’ data during clean-ups, just in case you need to retrieve something.
-
Premiumfeature
Power tweaks
We’ve included tweaks to optimize slow queries in WooCommerce, the WordPress postmeta table and more.
Image compression
-
Lossy or lossless compression options
Choose between maximum space saving, best image quality or somewhere in-between.
-
Auto-compress
Check a box and every new image you upload will automatically be compressed to your preferred lossy / lossless settings.
-
Premiumfeature
Delete orphaned images
Identify and delete unused images from your WordPress website, saving disk space.
-
Premiumfeature
Delete unused image sizes
WordPress creates multiple sizes of every uploaded image causing the uploads folder to become bloated. Scan for image sizes not in use and remove them to save further disk space.
-
WebP conversion
Recommended by Google, WebP can achieve up to 34% smaller file sizes compared to JPEG and up to 26% compared to PNG.
-
Bulk compression
Compress every existing image on your site with the press of a button.
-
Restore original
Gone too far? Revert images back to their original in one click.
-
Retain EXIF image data
Check a box to retain EXIF image data during compression.
-
Premiumfeature
Lazy load
Helps web pages to load much faster! It does this by loading web parts gradually / when they’re needed vs simultaneous loading of everything, all at once.
Caching
-
Turn on caching in just one click
WP-Optimize automatically detects and configures itself optimally for your WordPress site. Turn it on in one click or refine settings if you prefer.
-
Cache preloading
This clever feature means users receive a cached version of your site even if they haven’t visited before, improving page load times from the very first visit.
-
Premiumfeature
User specific cache
Serve separate cache files for individual users. Useful for websites with personalised content.
-
GZIP Compression
HTML, CSS and JSS are delivered to the user’s browser as smaller, compressed files, reducing the size of pages and style sheets by up to 90%!
-
Premiumfeature
Cache purging permissions
Select which user roles are allowed to purge the cache, from admins, editors, authors, contributors or subscribers.
-
Serve cached content to logged in users
Turn this on if content stays the same for logged in users (or turn on and exclude URLs where content does change e.g. my account areas).
-
Premiumfeature
User per role cache
Serve separate cache files to specific user roles. Useful if your website delivers different content to different user roles e.g. subscribers.
-
Browser cache
Instructs client browsers to reuse resources (HTML, CSS, JS) if no changes were made since the last request.
-
Advanced exclusion roles
Exclude content by URL, conditional tags, browser agent strings or list cookies that should prevent caching when set (advanced user settings).
-
Device-specific cache
Serve separate cache files to different devices. Useful if some of your content is delivered to mobile or desktop devices only.
-
Delay JavaScript execution
Speed up your site by delaying JavaScript until the user interacts with the page.
Minify
-
Minify in just one click
Minifies HTML, JavaScript and CSS. Toggle on or off or customise each one under ‘settings’.
-
Premiumfeature
Preload key requests
Recommended by Google to improve page speed times. Critical resources (things like font files) get loaded first, so the page loads much faster.
-
Customise minification
Minify only (removing unnecessary code e.g line breaks and white spacing) or minify and merge. Apply the same or different settings to HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
-
Exclude files from being minified
Specify CSS and JavaScript files to exclude from minification.
-
Premiumfeature
Google Analytics integration
Set up Google Analytics directly in WP-Optimize without extra plugins. Host the script locally to make your site faster, or switch to a lightweight version to save resources and speed up load times.
-
Asynchronous loading
Choose non-critical CSS and JavaScript files to load in the background and independently of other resources e.g. analytics or pixel scripts. Loading asynchronously eliminates render blocking and improves web speed.
-
Optimize fonts
Optimize Font Awesome and Google Fonts. Inline the font files, inherit from CSS settings or load asynchronously from CSS or JavaScript.
-
Preload assets
WP-Optimize visits each web page on your site so the code is minified and preloaded for real life users, right from their very first visit.
