Each feature page documents the current behavior, the relevant settings, and the verification step. The dashboard groups related controls so you can change one policy at a time and measure the result.
Core delivery features
- Page cache — static HTML generation, serving, invalidation, capacity limits, role variants, and WooCommerce-safe exclusions.
- Redis object cache — standalone, Sentinel, and Cluster connections, TLS, compression, a circuit breaker, and a managed drop-in.
- Minification and combining — HTML, CSS, JavaScript, inline payloads, CSS combining, and explicit exclusions.
- Defer and delay JavaScript — interaction, idle, viewport, priority, and opt-in third-party strategies with a safe preset.
- Used and critical CSS — per-template critical CSS, per-URL used CSS, staged preview, promotion, health checks, and rollback.
- Images, WebP, and AVIF — native or opt-in observer lazy loading, LCP guardrails, next-generation conversion, and server delivery rules.
- Database cleanup — nine explicit cleanup types, dry-run previews, scheduling, and autoloaded-options remediation.
- Preload and speculation — cache warm-up, sitemap discovery, resource hints, LCP/font discovery, and conservative speculation rules.
- Monitoring: PageSpeed and RUM — lab scans, first-party field Web Vitals, read-only suggestions, and anomaly notices.

Rollout discipline
Use the Dashboard preset and sandbox controls to preview a bounded change before promoting it. Keep WooCommerce safe mode enabled while testing cart, checkout, account, Store API, and faceted URLs. Keep advanced defer/delay and asset-removal options off until a staging test proves the first interaction and layout remain correct.
