CC-IMG-Shortcode

This plugin adds the [img] shortcode which replaces the `` html tag.

<p>The CC-Cache plugin supports caching of Posts, Pages, and any public Custom Post Types – including single and archive pages.<br />
It also supports a “static page display” option: Front page, Posts page, and standard Latest Posts listing.<br />
This plugin is compatible with Multisite WordPress installations.</p>
<h4>How does it work?</h4>
<p>When a user (i.e. someone who is logged out of WordPress) opens a page for the first time, the plugin saves all the rendered html to a file in the wp-content/cache directory.<br />
From this moment onwards, any user who accesses the site will be served content directly from the generated html file. WordPress at this point is not initialized for this page.<br />
The generated cache file will be removed when you make changes to the corresponding Post/Page, and then the process starts from the beginning.<br />
You can also clear all cached files from the Cache options page (visit the ‘Settings > Cache’ page in wp-admin), or manually delete files from the wp-content/cache directory.</p>
<h4>Tips & Tricks</h4>
<p>You can check if a page’s content is served from a cache file by opening the page’s source code in the browser and scrolling down to the closing <code><body></code> html tag.<br />
If the content is cached, you should see a comment with the date and time the page was last cached, for example:<br />
    </p>
<p>You can disable cache for a single request and get the raw html by adding <code>cache=false</code> to a URL’s parameter, for example:<br />
    http://example.com/?cache=false</p>
<p>You can disable cache for a single request and get the raw html by adding <code>cache=false</code> HTTP header.</p>
<p>Logged-in users always get the raw html.</p>
