To help conserve resources (and because bots don’t care), WP Engine has a custom 404 page for bots. This plugin removes that customization, which allows themes and plugins to serve their own 404 instead.

Pods Alternative Cache provides optimal performance with Pods sites on hosts with no object caching or low limits. It was developed for and tested on the WPEngine platform to improve performance of cached objects generated from Pods, but it works on numerous other hosting providers.
Pods Alternative Cache is a great addition to a site already utilizing Object Caching, it further separates and allows Pods to utilize more consistent persistent caching without affecting other plugins and WordPress caching objects. Especially when utilizing larger configurations, this plugin improves performance by ensuring other necessary objects are not removed by the server to make room for Pods cached objects.
This plugin requires the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/pods/" rel="ugc">Pods Framework</a> version 2.4 or later to run.
For more information on how to use this plugin, see <a href="https://pods.io/2014/04/16/introducing-pods-alternative-cache/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://pods.io/2014/04/16/introducing-pods-alternative-cache/</a>.

Pods Alternative Cache

A site we built was totally grinding to a halt on our BlueHost shared hosting account when we started getting traffic over a few hundred sessions. Other caching options weren't working and Pods Alt Cache did the trick! After setting up the cache parameters, it very quickly resolved the issue. Great file-based solution for server configurations that don't offer customized control over object/mem caching.



Fantastic!


PODS itself is great, this looks like crap, the only thing it seems to do is prevent proper editing of "POD Pages" as the template selection and other fields are gone!


Removes Pod Page Template Field!

Pods Alternative Cache is a file-based or database-based caching solution for hosts that have limitations on object caching.
