The MainWP Rocket Extension is an integration extension for MainWP, designed to work with WP Rocket, one of the most popular caching and performance optimization plugins for WordPress. WP Rocket helps websites load faster by implementing various performance-enhancing features like page caching, lazy loading, database optimization, and more.
This extension allows you to manage WP Rocket settings directly from the MainWP dashboard, enabling you to easily control caching and performance features across multiple WordPress sites from one central interface.
Key Features of the MainWP Rocket Extension:
- Centralized WP Rocket Management:

- You can also disable caching for specific sites if needed, offering greater control over how caching is applied across your network.
- Lazy Load Control:

- You can combine files to reduce HTTP requests and minify code to improve page speed without needing to log into each WordPress site.
- GZIP Compression:
- Enable and configure GZIP compression settings for your websites from the MainWP dashboard to reduce the size of files being sent to the user’s browser, improving page load times.

- You can easily configure URL rewrites, file exclusions, and CDN options for better content delivery performance.
- Mobile Caching:
- Manage mobile caching settings across all your sites, ensuring that mobile visitors receive cached pages for faster performance, without impacting the user experience on mobile devices.
- Cache Preloading:
