WPMS Memcached & Global hide settings

+1 to both these ideas. I really hope memcache will be possible for multisite in the near future.

@hristo-sg

Exactly what I am after as well. Any idea if memcached will be available for Multisite in the next update of SG Optimizer?

If so I will also be looking to move my multisites to SiteGround.

Thanks.

Hi @hristo-sg

Sorry but really wandering about this? Any idea if you will support memcached for multisite anytime soon?

Thanks.

Hello @chakra1010,

Ivan Atanasov from SiteGround here.

When installed in WordPress Multisite SG Optimizer will not allow the activation of Memcached. Our testings confirm that the memory pool is getting used up too fast with Memcached on Multisite, and it is why the option has been removed for such installations.

As for the second part of your question, the setup will remain the same for now. It will allow you to edit the SG Optimizer settings for each subsite separately as we believe users will want more control.

Of course, we keep all feedback and will react accordingly if there is a demand for a feature that makes sense.

@samful and @wanderingexplorer , I am mentioning both of you to thank you for participating in this thread and to be sure that you will get the notification.

Hi @hristo-sg.

You reply doesn’t make much sense to me.

“When installed in WordPress Multisite SG Optimizer will not allow the activation of Memcached. Our testings confirm that the memory pool is getting used up too fast with Memcached on Multisite, and it is why the option has been removed for such installations.”

I don’t understand the memory pool problem? I have found some solution online to do this manual with wp-config for multisite. If I can do it manual then why it is not possible with SG Optiimiser plugin?

“As for the second part of your question, the setup will remain the same for now. It will allow you to edit the SG Optimizer settings for each subsite separately as we believe users will want more control.”

OK. But why can’t you do both? Give the super admin user a option whether they want subsite users to have control or not? Then there is no issue here! If super admin says no control then remove it on all sites.

“Of course, we keep all feedback and will react accordingly if there is a demand for a feature that makes sense.”

@samful also wants the feature to have global option to hide these settings from all subsites. I think not just us but many other users want this too.

Please consider more this. Because otherwise it is very good plugin this far.

Also please can you provide more response on this. Especially the memory pool problem?

Hi @chakra1010, @ivanatanasov

Hope you don’t mind me jumping in here again, but I too would like the settings to be global. So either give all subsites control of SG Optimizer settings, or remove control from all of them, rather than on an individual basis. In almost all cases we would only want to allow network admins to be able to set this up and determine appropriate settings for the network and subsites.

@ivanatanasov I don’t understand the issue regarding the memory pool? I would imagine that most Multisite owners would have a Cloud hosting, or dedicated plan. While those who are on one of the shared hosting plans are likely to have only a few subsites on their network.

@hristo-sg sorry to tag, but could you please provided some insight here? Will Memcache become available for Multisite, in a future version of SG Optimizer? This is somewhat a deciding factor as to whether to stick with my current host for my multisite installations or move them to SiteGround. Thank you.

See my review here and a reply from @hristo-sg

He has confirmed that they will now provide support for Memcached in WPMS starting from the next major update ;-).

@hristo-sg Would still be nice to have a global setting though so we can allow all sub sites to be able to see Supercacher setting or hide Supercacher settings from all sub sites.
