GARMTECH shared hosting runs on LiteSpeed Enterprise. For WordPress websites, the recommended cache plugin is LiteSpeed Cache (LSCache), because it integrates directly with the web server.
What is LSCache and why use it?
LSCache is a caching plugin that stores ready copies of your pages, so the server can send them to visitors instantly instead of rebuilding each page from the database on every request. The website becomes noticeably faster, server load drops, and faster loading improves both user experience and search rankings.
Before you enable caching
- Use only one page cache plugin at a time. If you already use WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, WP Rocket, etc., disable it before enabling LSCache page caching.
- If your site has a shop or logged‑in area, you must exclude dynamic pages (cart/checkout/account) from cache.
Install LSCache
New WordPress installations on GARMTECH hosting usually include LSCache out of the box – check your plugin list first. If you migrated your website from another host, install it manually:
- Log in to WordPress Admin.
- Go to Plugins → Add New.
- Search for LiteSpeed Cache and click Install, then Activate.
Quick recommended setup
- Open LiteSpeed Cache → Presets and select a preset that matches your site type.
- Open LiteSpeed Cache → Cache and make sure Enable Cache is turned on.
- For sites with logins/shops, review Cache → Excludes (cart, checkout, my-account, admin‑ajax, etc.).
How to clear (purge) cache
- In WordPress top bar: LiteSpeed → Purge All
- Or: LiteSpeed Cache → Toolbox → Purge All
Purge cache after you change the theme, update CSS, or edit critical site content.
More ways to purge – browser cache, Cloudflare, or when wp-admin is unavailable: see how to clear LiteSpeed Cache on GARMTECH WordPress hosting.
Common issues
- Changes are not visible: purge LSCache and also clear your browser cache (or test in incognito).
- Cart/login not working: exclude dynamic pages from cache and ensure you are not caching cookies for logged‑in users.
- Too many optimization features at once: enable minify/combine and image optimization gradually. Test the website after each change.
Note: LSCache can also use optional services like QUIC.cloud for CDN/optimization features. They are not required for basic caching on GARMTECH hosting.
