[Plugin: WP Super Cache] Does Combination with HTTP Express make sense? (4 posts)

    Hi board,

    I just stumbled upon this new WP plugin: HTTP Express

    HTTP Express is a HTTP proxy that catches all images, css, javascript and flash movies on the fly to add correct HTTP headers. It adds the following headers:

    • Expires
    • Cache-control
    • Pragma
    • Last-modified

    Would it make sense to install this plugin if I have WP Super Cache installed? Does WP Super Cache add those headers already?

    Regards
    Jan

    It should work fine, although I haven't tested it.

    Hi Erunafailaro,

    It does make sense to use it in combination with HTTP Express. WP Super Cache creates a cache copy for the document users see.
    HTTP Express instead optimizes browsers' cache use by adding right headers to images, css, swf and javascript (which are not processed by WP Super Cache as I can see from a quick overview)
