Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Index WP MySQL For Speed
Yes. You already knew that.
Just installing and activating the plugin is not enough to make it work. Don't forget to visit the Index MySQL Tool under the Tools menu. From there you can press the Add Keys Now button. On a modestly sized site (with a few users and a few hundred posts) your database may be fast enough without these keys. The speed improvements are most noticeable on larger sites with many posts and products.
Yes. Some WordPress databases have nonstandard prefixes. That is, their tables are named something_posts, something_postmeta, and so forth instead of wp_posts and wp_postmeta. This works with those databases.
Yes.
MySQL versions 5.5.62 and above, 5.6.4 and above, 8 and above. MariaDB versions 5.5.62 and above.
InnoDB only. If your tables use MyISAM (the older storage engine) or the older COMPACT row format, this plugin offers to upgrade them for you.
Please read this.
Yes. it is safe to add keys and revert them. Changing keys is a routine database-maintenance operation. As you know you should still keep backups of your site: other things can cause data loss.
Yes. WooCommerce still uses core WordPress tables for your shop's products, posts, pages, and users. This plugin adds high-performance keys to those tables. High Performance Order Storage, true to its name, stores your shop's orders in a more efficient way. Formerly orders were stored in those same core WordPress tables.
This plugin only changes database indexes. If the other plugin does not change database indexes, it is very likely compatible with this one. Of course, if you find an incompatibility please open a support topic.
