How To Setup Redis Caching For WordPress In A Few Simple Steps

[@WPCasts]

Things I'd like to cover in a more comprehensive video on Redis: 1. Password protection 2. Speed metrics 3. Managing Redis on a separate server Let me know what else you'd like to learn in the comments or Twitter: twitter.com/_WPCasts_tv_

Really appreciate you posting this information. Just a quick note--not sure why you're using the sudo command when you're already root? Also, please mention "keys" command should never be run in a prod environment because of high time complexity. It puts Redis into a blocking state, and as Redis is single-threaded, this results in impaired performance.

This is my first time interacting with Redis. Need to read about it first. The real basics.

[@Nazreen]

A big thumbs up for contents you post. I am sure your channel will grow over time. Keep going, Good luck! 👍

[@tayyabrafique2671]

Thanks for the great video. One question is if we update any post from backend it will automatically re cached on Redis?

[@LevyCarneiro]

Yes.

I was able to get this working on Ubuntu with the PPA "ppa:ondrej/php". So no phpize, make or ./configure needed. Just "sudo apt install redis-server php-redis". The apt install also created all the redis.ini files automatically for me in the /etc/php/7.3/fpm/conf.d/ directory since I'm using nginx. The only difference I see between the video and what I was able to install is that "Redis Object Cache" is using "Predis" instead of the tutorials "PhpRedis". Not sure if it matters or one is better than the other but it is working nicely. Thank you for this tutorial! Edit: After doing some reading I read that PhpRedis is 6x faster, so I switched. However, I run "Query Monitor" and my query times jumped after the switch and were a bit slower. At which point I switched back to Predis and my query times are back down again. Mainly posting for anyone wanting to use with Ubuntu/nginx/php7.*-fpm.

Still working fine?

[@skeepskeeperson]

Do we still need to install caching plugin like wp rocket w cache or something else ? What is the next level we can make better ? Can I connect with cloudflare ?

[@justindouglas3659]

Redis does object caching that is to store db queries wprocket is for page caching storing tje html, css and js

[@Mr.Thenula2011]

Hi Mate, great video one question though, does Redis has to be in the same server, can it be in the different server?

[@peterngochannel]

would be interested to know thí á well.

[@FranciscoMarcosMilhomemAbreu]

I also want to know.

[@tomdevisser4851]

Can you use Redis next to WP Rocket or should you choose just one?

[@udorblessing]

This was quite helpful. Thank you for the insight

[@HaifengZhu-pn3uq]

hi, if I'm not using Digital Ocean, do I need to change to SystemD?

[@hopeseekr]

Wow! I can *cleanly* and completely understand you!! None of the crappy thick thick accents!

[@lorenzi_feinste_stahlwaren]

Great tutorial, thank you very much!! 👌🙏👏👏

[@Kqto]

Great video. Now, can you tell me which cache is better for WordPress: redis or memcache?

[@WPCasts]

I’m honestly not sure. I’m just more comfortable with Redis :)

[@yaybert]

Great video! One question: If I have a WP setup with the DB connected to RDS, can I still use Redis? Do I need to connect it to the RDS database, or will connect automatically?

[@indigetal]

Following this tutorial but on Centos7 and all was well until 9:39 to install php-dev (sudo yum install php-dev) - no match for argument.

[@carlosbrito2116]

[@ddrci88]

Hi why not using cyberpanel ? It’s more easy to handle everything ?

[@LevyCarneiro]

Have you ran into an issue where the site works well except one part of it, that will only display correctly if flushing the redis cache? Would you have any tips? Thanks!

[@asadferozali21]

Excellent - well explained - Thank you

[@mandrael]

What is the disadvantage or risk if I use redis?

[@lovequotes1739]

Can you do one of these for centos please.

[@sachintiwari2289]

Can i install varnish with it !

[@aleejunaid]

I've heard Redis is a CPU hungry resource - What is your experience with this Wordpress setup

[@aleejunaid]

Love your videos

[@EricThomson]

Whenever I enable Redis, Query Monitor disappears. The plugin shows Activate but will not let me. When I disable Redis (plugin or server) then Query Monitor opens like nothing happened. Any ideas??

[@ramzanulhasan]

we are using Virtualmin can we setup redis now?

[@vladtircomnicu1630]

Nice one

[@KunalGautam]

Please enlighten me for using sudo under root user.

[@WPCasts]

That could be a mistake

[@KunalGautam]

@@WPCasts Thanks for reply I thought I missed something :)
