Migrating from W3 Cache | WordPress.org

Okay, so I’m in the same boat as this guy from a little over a year ago: http://journalxtra.com/websiteadvice/wordpress/uninstall-w3-total-cache-proper-3920/

Basically, W3 Cache has just cost me too much sanity to be worth it any more and I want to go back to SuperCache. However, I’m completely paranoid that this is going to be a vast and complicated procedure.

Has anyone done it more recently? Anything specific to worry about?

Well… that may have been a bad idea. Supercache so far seems even more problematic.

Specifically, I’m having this exact problem: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-wp-super-cache-caching-broken-the-script-advanced-cachephp-could-not?replies=44

But I can’t make heads or tails of any of the solutions suggested there. I have cleanly uninstalled the plugin – at least I think I have… tried to re-install, same damn problem.

I’ll have to go back to w3 for now.

@nickaster – edit your wp-config.php and remove the WP_CACHE define and delete the file wp-content/advanced-cache.php and try install it again?

Thanks Donnacha.

Yeah, I tried that. Kept putting me back into the same cycle.

I’m going to have to try this again over the weekend, I can’t do it during the day because there’s too much traffic on the site to let the cache down.
