WP Fastest Cache

The Geo Controller is compatible with the WP Fastest Cache plugin. To enable this integration, you must first approve cache compatibility in the Geo Controller settings.

Important: You must disable the server cache option inside WP Fastest Cache.

The server cache stores web pages or other content locally by saving previously requested information in temporary storage. This speeds up access and reduces bandwidth usage. Cache plugins typically create a snapshot of each page, store it as a static HTML file, and serve it instead of generating dynamic content.

While this approach can reduce database queries and improve loading speed, it can cause issues with dynamic content. For example, if your site uses geo location detection, the cache will store the location data from when the snapshot was created — meaning all visitors will see the same location, which is incorrect.

Geo Controller uses JavaScript and AJAX to work around this limitation. However, due to the complexity of the plugin and the fact that cache plugin developers have not fully implemented native support for it, occasional issues may still occur.

The Geo Controller team continuously works to ensure compatibility with as many plugins as possible, but unexpected issues can arise, and in some cases, cooperation from other plugin developers is needed.
