Content No Cache | Serve uncached partial content even when you add it to a page that is fully cached. vs PlugoSpeed

Normally, if a web page is served by the cache, its content will be always the same until the cache is deleted. By adding the content with the shortcode provided by Content No Cache, you will be able to show dynamic content even on pages served by cache. You don’t need this plugin to exclude the entire page from the cache. This plugin is to exclude a part of the page from the cache. It’s useful if you need to cache a page, but part of that page should not be cached. Imagine you have a page that has this content: Hello this is some text. Another line of text Another line of text Current day: Monday if that page is served by cache, the user will always see: Hello this is some text. Another line of text Another line of text Current day: Monday If you need that the last line of text is always updated, this plugin will help you. The entire page will be served by the cache, but the plugin will get the updated content that you need. How to show dynamic content with full page cache Install Content No Cache Create a new element “Content No Cache” Add to that element all the content that you want to exclude from the cache Copy the shortcode that you will see in the section “Shortcode”. It will look like [content_no_cache id=”3328″]. The parameter “id” is the ID of the content element (in this example 3328). Add the shortcode to the page where you want to display that content.

The few lines of code will run only where you add the shortcode. No jQuery, no JS libraries, only a couple of lines of pure JavaScript No database queries, no extra HTTP requests for external assets, no bloat With a few line of ultralight code you can fully cache the page even if you need dynamic content on that page It provides a shortcode, so you can add it everywhere, no matter the builder Tips to speed up the process to get the content Install Freesoul Deactivate Plugins Go to Freesoul Deactivate Plugins => Actions => Content No Cache Disable all the plugins that you don’t need to output the content Example You can see Content No Cache in action visiting the blog post Exclude specific content from being cached. You will see a number that is always different when you refresh the page. But the page is served by full page cache. In the example it’s just a number, but you can output whatever content you want. Possible conflicts Some plugins don’t load the shortcodes during ajax requests. Because Content No Cache retrieves the content through ajax, in those cases the content will not be displayed properly. If you have this kind of issue set the parameter request=”remote”. In this case the shortcode will look like [content_no_cache id=”3328″ request=”remote”] The plugin will retrieve the content in a different way that will be a little slower, but this will solve this kind of conflict.

PlugoSpeed is a WordPress performance plugin that combines page caching, asset optimization, and Core Web Vitals improvements in a single lightweight package. It generates static HTML cache files served directly from disk via Apache — bypassing PHP and WordPress on cached requests. In testing on a standard VPS, this approach achieves sub-50ms TTFB and PageSpeed scores of 95/100 on desktop. A React 18 dashboard provides real-time cache hit rates, bandwidth saved, and PageSpeed score tracking — no jQuery required. Core Features (Free) Static HTML Cache Pages are stored as static .html files on disk. Apache serves them directly — no PHP, no database, no WordPress bootstrap. Cache TTL is configurable (default: 24 hours). HTML Minification Removes unnecessary whitespace and comments from the final HTML output, reducing page size without affecting content or functionality. CSS Minification Minifies stylesheet files inline, reducing transfer size. Combine is intentionally disabled by default for HTTP/2 compatibility. JavaScript Defer Adds defer to non-critical scripts, improving Time to Interactive (TTI) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) scores on mobile. Image Lazy Loading Adds native loading="lazy" to images and iframes below the fold. Injects explicit width and height attributes to reduce Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). Database Cleanup Scheduled cleanup of post revisions, auto-drafts, spam comments, and expired transients. Configurable schedule: daily, weekly, or monthly. Cache Preloading After purge, PlugoSpeed re-warms the cache automatically by walking your XML sitemap. Rate-limited to avoid server overload. Auto Cache Purge Cache is invalidated on post save, theme change, plugin activation, and WooCommerce stock/price updates. PageSpeed Dashboard Tracks your Google PageSpeed Insights score over time with a 30-day graph. Shows live cache hit/miss ratio, bandwidth saved, and page count. Pro Features Remove Unused CSS (RUCSS) Generates a per-page stylesheet containing only the CSS rules that are actually used. Eliminates render-blocking CSS from page builders and plugin stylesheets. Requires a PlugoPress API key. Critical CSS Inlines the above-the-fold CSS directly in , eliminating render-blocking for a faster LCP. Requires a PlugoPress API key. WebP Image Serving Automatically serves .webp versions of images to supported browsers, reducing image payload by 25–35% without quality loss.
