Caching question

    Quick question regarding caching (using WP Super Cache)

    Should most WP users enable caching on their blogs? Is it safe to say that enabling caching will not only increase speed load times but help with hits from Google, Digg, and etc.?

    I would like Mobile users to see the blog as well. Will this work if I enable “Half On” (Super cache disabled… legacy only…)

    Or is it best to enable Super Cache (WP Cache and Super Cache) for optimal results.

    I also don’t understand the difference.

    Would greatly appreciate some feedback re: caching.

    Thanks!

    I´m not an expert but…

    Yes, is a good idea if you are expecting a lot of traffic. It will increase speed load times for common users, but will allow your server to handle a traffic spike too (My English is not very good).

    I would like Mobile users to see the blog as well. Will this work if I enable “Half On” (Super cache disabled… legacy only…) Or is it best to enable Super Cache (WP Cache and Super Cache) for optimal results.

    It should work with Super Cache enabled, and I would suggest you to enable it. As far as I know, Wp-Cache calls PHP, but with Super Cache you don’t call PHP. The server sends an HTML file. So there is no server load.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you ponchito, you clarified a few things for me.

    I’ve enabled Super-Cache and WP-cache, let’s see what happens.
