Will WP-Cache Solve Memory Problem with Server?

  • I posted about an issue I’m having with my WP blog using nearly 3x the amount of memory allowed yesterday, but so far no one has responded to my post. So I’ve been searching the web and I’m wondering if a plugin like WP-Cache or WP-Super Cache will resolve the issue?

    Any advice would be much appreciated, I’m out of my depths here and will likely need to shut down my blog if I can’t resolve this issue. I’m already paying $50/month for hosting and can’t afford the next level package that has more memory.

    It’s supposed to, Goose3five. You may want to twiddle with your settings.

    Otto42, I have the cache being tossed into my /tmp/wpsupercache folder, as it happens. Ramdisk is a new one on me so I’ll go check that out. Thank you!

    Thank you for your help Ipstenu! I upgraded to WP 2.7 and dumped all the redundant plugins. The only thing I’m not sure about is how to highlight the author comments…. I have the CSS in my style sheet from the Highlight Author plugin, but how do I implement it with the new comment threading?

    Thank you so, so much for your help. I emailed my hosting company to see what the memory is looking like right now… if it’s still high after upgrading and significantly reducing the plugins I’m going to install WP-Super-Cache.

    Add CSS for bypostauthor in your style.css

    Mine is:
    li.bypostauthor {background-color: #CCCCCC; }

    Ipstenu – I added that bit of code to my stylesheet but my comments still weren’t highlighted. Tried #comments li.bypostauthor {background-color: #CCCCCC; } too and that didn’t change anything.

    Do I need to change anything in the comments.php or someplace else?

    Before the new comments stuff in 2.7 work, your theme has to be modified to use that new functionality.
