WP Rocket Guide – Newspaper pro demo is using WP Rocket

Hi,

In your default NP demo, you use WP Rocket to optimise the site.

Can you please provide a guide recommended by TagDiv for Newspaper theme using WP Rocket?

Your guides for free WP Super Cache, Autoptimize etc do not solve issues required to comply with Core Web Vitals.

Therefore, it is misleading to advertise that the theme is CWV ready, but in fact it is not ready, since a premium WP Rocket plugin is used in order to make it ready.

Thank you.

Hey,you are correct, its on WP Rocket, Ewww Image Optimizer and Cloudflare.
This is interesting.

I would also like to get details on this. Why these 3? It is easily reproducible but the settings.

Hi,

So you just have ignored the question you were asked and instead of answering, in 2024 you posted someone’s else guide for WP Rocket from 2021. Seriously?

The “How to make your site fast” including WP Super Cache and Cloudflare guides that you provided do not solve Core Web Vitals issues for publishers, when Google Analytics and Adsesne are in use.

You can of course say that the theme optimisation is not covered by support.

It looks like your theme is “Core Web Vitals Ready”, ONLY when external java is not used.

You probably must make it clear to everyone that Analytics and Adsense (and any other external JS) cannot be used in your theme, as it will fail Core Web Vitals.

@kompic, as you likely know WP Rocket is a premium paid plugin.

One can start having a though that they won’t be able to mass sell their theme if they will start disclosing that in addition to buying the theme and paying to them, you will also have to buy another plugin for speed in order to meet CWV.

That’s why they have a guide for WP Super Cache, Cloudflare, etc plugins that are free and “Optimisation is not covered”.

These guides for free plugins will get your sites to 90+ no problems, I know it as I’ve done it on multiple sites.

But as soon as you have Adsense + any other external code to load java, ads or whatever – it’s basically game over for CWV. You will still be around 90 in the pagespeed test, but won’t actually pass CWV, as it collects real user experience data.

And like you also noticed they use WP Rocket for their demo. One can start thinking that maybe their guides for free plugins don’t actually work?

Maybe this can be asked on some public forum like reddit to get some fresh answers… A shared guide from three years ago from someone else’s website is not really helpful, is it?
