KeymasterHello Joren,
Thank you for your feedback.
I completely understood the first post. However, I do not understand the last one. What do you mean by “the error is not relevant”
Can you please check if the option “Only purge CDN manually” is enabled?
Thanks!Marko Vasiljevic
KeymasterHello Joren
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
Can you please share specifically what happens when you try to upload a new image in the medial library when the CDN option is enabled?
Please go to the W3 Total Cache settings – Performance>CDN>Advanced, and enable the option “Only purge CDN manually” Save all settings and purge the cache, and let me know if the issue persists.
Thanks!Marko Vasiljevic

Nothing in the W3 Total Cache has been changed related to the redis_cache in the previous updates.
It seems like the key value is not fetching the old data or trying to do so.
Can you please try to flush redis databases and restart Redis service flushdb clears one database and flushall clears all databasesClear CURRENT
Delete default or currently selected database (usually 0) withredis-cli flushdb
Clear SPECIFIC
Delete specific redis database with (e.g. 8 as target database):redis-cli -n 8 flushdb
Clear ALL
Delete all redis databases withredis-cli flushall
FLUSHDB – clears currently active database
FLUSHALL – clears all the existing databasesMarko Vasiljevic
KeymasterHello Lydia,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
For this, you can use W3 Total Cache plugin.
Please note that you can download the plugin directly from your plugins section in the Dashboard, and once installed and activated, you can enable Minify in Performance>General settings.
In Performance>Minify, you can find more advanced settings, and you can choose to minify all the files or just CSS files.Let me know if this helps!
Thanks!

KeymasterHello Lewis,
Thank you for your feedback.
I am sorry for the confusion. SO the wp.com and wp.org are not the same.The main difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org is that WordPress.com is a fully hosted platform, while WordPress.org is a self-hosted platform. This means that WordPress.com takes care of hosting, security, and maintenance for you, while WordPress.org requires you to find your own hosting provider and take care of security and maintenance yourself. Additionally, WordPress.com has limitations on customization and plugins, while WordPress.org allows for full customization and plugin installation.
This is why I was confused when you stated that the website is hosted on WordPress. So this is the reason why you cannot activate the W3 Total cache on your website.
W3 Total Cache is on the wp.org:https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/w3-total-cache/reviews/
Let me know if you have any other questions.

KeymasterHello Trey,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
As the notification states, the current db.php drop-in file is not a W3 Total Cache drop-in. This means that you are using another solution for DB caching besides W3 Total Cache.
To resolve this, please disable DB caching in the Performance>General settings, save all settings, and purge the cache, or if you want to use W3 Total Cache DB caching, disable the other plugin used for this, and delete the db.php file from the wp-content folder on your server.Let me know if this helps!
Thanks!

Thank you for your feedback
WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that allows you to host and build websites. The hosting provider is the server on which WordPress is installed on and where the website files are located.
Can you please share with which hosting provider you have an account?Thanks!

Yes, it seems like the server limitation.
Please reach out to your hosting provider and check if the caching plugins are allowed.

I am unable to see the screenshot you attached so can you please upload the image to imgur.com and share the link?
Some hosting providers do not allow W3 Total cache or other caching plugins to be installed and active. Can you please share your hosting provider and if it allows caching plugins?

KeymasterHello Stephane,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
Remove the license key from W3 Total Cache installation from https://hammampacha.com/shop Performance>General settings, Licensing sub-box, license field, and save all settings. Re-enter the license in https://hammampacha.com , verify the license with the “verify license button” and save all settings.
W3 Total Cache Pro should be active after these steps!
Thanks!

KeymasterHello Joe,
The problem is with the version of the Safari. I’ve tested this on 17.0 and everything works as expected.
The version you are using is more than a year old and it does not mean that it does not support webp, it just means that that version has some problems that were fixed later on with other updatesThanks!

Can you please share the page on which the specific images are not loading on Safari Browser?
Once images are converted, the W3 Total cache is using a rewrite to serve images as webp. This is read as a content type on browsers.
Safari does support webp, however, the problem may be with the encoding of the images and how those mages are added to the website.
Please share the page so I can inspect this.

Can you please share where you are seeing that the data is coming from DB cache?
I’ve checked the website and I do not see that the layout is broken.
Can you please share the screenshot of what you are seeing? If the W3 Total Cache is disabled it means that it does not have any effect on the website and the website performance.

KeymasterHello Joanne,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
These are simple deprecation notifications and there is no malware. This means that some code was deprecated and not in use
W3 Total Cache supports various PHP and WP versions as some websites are not updated to the latest versions.This will be checked and removed for future updates.
In any case, you do not have anything to worry about when it comes to the security of the website and any potential malware in the W3 Total Cache.
Thanks!

KeymasterHello,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
Just to confirm, you were not able to remove all W3 Total Cache files from the server?
Can you please let me know what happened when you tried to delete:
– cache folder
– upgrade folder
– w3-total-cache folder in wp-content/pluginsYou should make sure that all mentioned files are deleted to ensure that the W3 Total Cache is completely removed from the server, and then re-install the plugin in the plugin section.
Please let me know if this helps!Marko Vasiljevic

The W3 Total Cache uses the rewrite capabilities of your server to serve the images as a webp.
All images converted with the Image Service tool are sent to a third-party server maintained by the W3 Total Cache team which reduces resource consumption and allows for a large number of conversions in environments where resources can be limited such as shared hosting. Images sent to the W3TC server for conversion are only held temporarily and no permanent information is kept on the server regarding the images.
The images are converted:

I hope this answers your questions.
Thanks!

Can you please share which caching method you are using in the W3 Total Cache Performance>General Settings for Object Caching?
If it’s set to disk, please disable this option purge the cache, and manually remove the wp-content/cache/object folder.

KeymasterHello Erwin,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
You can disable Fragment Caching in W3 Total Cache Performance>Extensions, and click on Deactivate.
As for the PHP warning, make sure that the Caching method is selected for Fragment Cache in Performanc>General settings – Fragment caching.
The second part should not be needed if the Fragment Cache is disabled.

KeymasterHello Micha,
Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help.
This is not a bug in W3 Total Cache, and there are a lot of factors when it comes to the cache refresh and cache purging.
The ‘Expires header lifetime’ value is the Browser Cache value – header.
_old files are created when the cache is purged.
It’s fine to have _old files. If you always have only _old files – that’s a sign something purges the cache all the time. Like theme or some plugin.
Depending on the configuration in Performance>Page Cache>Purge policy, the cache can be purged once the content is updated or a new article is created.
As mentioned above, some plugins or themes may call the purge of the cache if they are using the filter that exists in the W3 Total Cache.
To be safe, please check your Purge log in Performance>General settings>Debug>PageCache purge log and see what is calling the cache purge.

KeymasterHello Cynthia,
As I’ve mentioned before, the problem with GPS is the external resources that are loading on your website.
And as I explained before, the 3rd party resources cannot be optimized by the W3 Total Cache.
If you check the opportunity tabs in google page speed you can see the following:
Removing those resources would mean removing gta, facebook and any other scripts that are loading on your website.Marko Vasiljevic
KeymasterHello Cynthia,
Every test I performed suggests that the website is in optimal condition.
The time to the first byte is excellent and there are no issues with caching. Additionally, you are serving the website from Cloudflare.
Please see the Gtmetrix report below:
As for Minify, You are using Cloudflare Minify as I can see, however, you can check if Minify is enabled in the Performance>General settings. Please note that is not recommended to use more than one minify solution.
