Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Vyse Digital Boosted – Site Optimization, Cache, SEO & Cookie Consent
The first time someone opens a page, Boosted saves the finished HTML to disk. Every visitor after that is handed that file by a drop-in that runs before WordPress loads, so no theme, plugin or database query runs at all. Logged-in users always get a freshly built page, so you never see a cached copy of your own admin bar.
Three things, in order. Developer mode: if it is on, caching is paused on purpose. WP_CACHE: the Cache tab shows whether define( 'WP_CACHE', true ) is in wp-config.php, and offers to add it. Another optimization plugin: if one already owns the caching layer, the Compatibility tab names it, and running two page caches is worse than running one.
minifies but never defers a script, so nothing can break from load order - start here on a site with lots of plugins. Balanced adds script deferral and CSS combination. Advanced pushes both further. If something breaks after a change, step down one level rather than turning everything off.
It can minify, and it is off by default. The JavaScript page offers opt-in minification using a parser-backed minifier; Boosted keeps an original copy of every script and falls back to it on any failure, so nothing is ever rewritten in place. Scripts are never combined - combining reorders execution and is the classic way a speed plugin takes a site down - that switch stays off. Boosted defers scripts instead, which is reversible and does not rewrite your code. CSS is combined and minified, because the risk there is far smaller. I am working on the site and keep seeing the old version. Turn on developer mode in Settings. It pauses page caching and preloading, lazy loading, HTML minification, CSS combination, script deferral and the LCP preload hint, all at once and site-wide, while leaving every one of your settings exactly as it is. Turn it off when you are done and everything comes back.
Nothing is deleted. With "Make photos smaller" on, Boosted saves a smaller version of each JPEG and PNG over the file in place, under the same name. Before it does, it keeps a backup of the full-size original in wp-content/uploads/vysedigital-boosted/backups/ (on by default), and Restore on the Images screen puts it back. WebP and AVIF copies are separate files next to the original. Deactivating the plugin leaves your images as they are now, so restore them first if you want the originals back. I optimized an image but no WebP or AVIF appeared. Usually the server cannot make that format. The Images tab lists what your PHP install supports - GD or Imagick, and which formats each can write. AVIF in particular needs a recent build, and plenty of hosts do not have it. If the format is supported, the image is probably still queued.
Deliberately longer than it could. Boosted converts three images per cron pass and reschedules about a minute later, because converting a whole media library at once is how an optimization plugin gets a site suspended for CPU use. An image that fails is retried up to three times with a widening gap between attempts, then left alone rather than retried forever. You can pause and resume the queue from the Images tab.
Images below the fold are told to load only as the visitor approaches them,
largest visible element is excluded on purpose and given loading priority instead - lazy-loading your hero image makes the page score worse, not better. Width and height are filled in where they are missing so the layout does not jump as images arrive.
On the post itself. In the block editor it is the Boosted SEO panel in the sidebar; on a screen still using the classic editor it is a meta box below the content. Boosted shows one or the other, never both on the same post, so there
On single posts and pages: the title and description, an Open Graph title for link previews, a canonical URL, and structured data describing the page for search engines. Archives, category listings and the blog index are left alone - those are the pages where a guessed description does more harm than none.
