- | ====== LiteSpeedCache for Joomla ====== | + | ====== LiteSpeed Cache for Joomla with VirtueMart support ====== |
+ | LiteSpeed's LSCache for Joomla is a high performance, low cost, user friendly cache extension for Joomla v3.x+ sites running on a LiteSpeed web server. It will tremendously speed up your site, and reduce server load with minimal management efforts. | ||
- | The LiteSpeedCache plugin is a high performance cache plugin for Joomla sites running on a LiteSpeed webserver. | + | For most Joomla sites, the default settings work well. However, LSCJoomla is flexible and provides many ways to fine-tune your cache, if you are so inclined. |
- | The LiteSpeedCache extension was originally written by LiteSpeed Technologies. It is released under the GNU General Public Licence (GPL). | + | For advanced Joomla sites such as e-commerce sites, LiteSpeed's cutting-edge ESI functionality combined with cache options for logged-in users allows your complex business site to run with the efficiency of a static file site. Your store's pleasant user experience will encourage repeat customers. |
- | See https://www.litespeedtech.com/products/cache-plugins for more information. | + | The smart auto-purge feature minimizes cache management needs. No more worrying about synchronization problems. LSCJoomla will detect that you changed an article, you changed a menu setting, or you changed a module setting. Then, it will //automatically purge related pages//. This gives you the freedom to set a longer cache expiration time and improve visitor experience, confident that the cache will be purged when the relevant content or setting changes. |
- | ===== Prerequisites ===== | + | Some components and some pages may not work well with cache. LiteSpeed Cache for Joomla allows flexible exclude rules for those components and pages. |
- | This version of LiteSpeedCache requires Joomla 3.x or later and LiteSpeed LSWS Server 5.2.3 or later. | + | **NOTE**: Since the **VirtueMart** eCommerce component is a Joomla component, LiteSpeed's LSCache plugin for Joomla supports VirtueMart by default and there is no extra plugin required. |
+ | ===== Requirements ===== | ||
+ | LiteSpeed Cache for Joomla requires: | ||
+ | * Joomla 3.x or later | ||
+ | * Either LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise 5.2.3 or later, or OpenLiteSpeed 1.4 or later | ||
