My Theme Isn't Working Right With The W3 Total Cache Plugin.

  • I don’t know if I posted this in the right thread of not.

    But I just paid $99 to Blue Host to have my website optimized to run faster…
    https://www.floridatripguides.com

    Once it was completed the site did run faster which was great. However as soon as they finished it – I noticed my theme started to not function properly. During the optimization they added the W3 Total Cache Plugin. (which is the plugin that made the site run A LOT faster).

    So now that this plug in messes up my website – I had to deactivate the plugin… now the site works like its suppose too – BUT it is VERY slow.

    Before it would mess up the maps – I would select Orlando and all the Orlando listings will appear… then I would select Tampa – And the Orlando Map would still appear. BUT the tampa listings would appear below….

    So that obviously isn’t good…
    So I deactivated the W3 Total Cache Plugin at the moment.

    So what should I do?

    I am using the City Guide from AIT themes.

    So any advice on what i can do?

  • Try reactivating W3TC but disable the Minify feature and empty caches, see if your maps are working then.

    Whats the Minify feature? never heard of that- thanks ??

    Sure thing. Minify squishes certain files together. It can be configured automatically or manually. Sometimes automatic configuration doesn’t work right. So, make sure it’s disabled to see if that’s causing your issue.

    To turn Minify off, go to Performance > General Settings, scroll down under Minify and deselect ‘Enable’.

    Where do i turn it off at? On my hosting company?
    Or WordPress datebase?

    Sorry just a little confused ??

    From your WordPress dashboard.

    The only Performance I See on my dashboard is under the SEO plug in that I have…. is that it?

    Sorry

    No, it’s part of the W3 Total Cache Plugin. First you’ll have to re-enable the W3TC plugin. Then you’ll look for Performance in the Dashboard.

    Below is what it says… Enable is selected in green but wont let me click on it or anything…

    Unlock more speed, now!
    Jump to: Main Menu | General | HTML & XML | JS | CSS | Advanced | Note(s)

    Minify via disk is currently enabled.

    To rebuild the minify cache use the operation. Get minify hints using the wizard. to make existing file modifications visible to visitors with a primed cache.

    go to Performance > General Settings, scroll down under Minify and deselect ‘Enable’.

    Yeah its still having the same issue… if you go to https://www.floridatripguides.com

    and click under categories (lets say Attractions) all the attractions pop up on the map… then you want to go to Shopping…. – The attractions still are on the map page. BUT the listings below are shopping ??

    This really sucks.

    Hi,

    If you deactivate W3TC plugin you need to enable caching by .htaccess and need to apply few .htaccess rules to make loading fatster.

    Cheers..!!
