Browser caching can improve page load times by storing static resources locally on the user’s device. This guide explains how to configure browser caching for WordPress.

  1. Modify .htaccess File:
    • Add caching rules to your .htaccess file to specify cache durations for various file types:
  2. Use a Caching Plugin:
    • Install a caching plugin like W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache to configure browser caching and other performance settings.
  3. Set Cache-Control Headers:
    • Ensure that your server is configured to send Cache-Control headers with appropriate expiration times.

Implementing browser caching helps reduce load times and improves the overall user experience by reusing previously loaded resources.
