Wordpress Cache Gibberish
A couple of days ago, I started to notice that there was nothing but gibberish on the homepage of Daily Cup of Tech. I quickly dug into the problem to determine what could be causing the issue. The problem was with compression in the (wonderful) WP-Super-Cache Wordpress plug-in.
Here is how I fixed the problem.
- I accessed the WP-Super-Cache admin page directly from its URL:
<blog base URL>/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wp-super-cache/wp-cache.php - I disabled the Super Cache Compression and then updated the settings.
This seems to have resolved the issue but I would really like to run compression as it is a nice feature. Anyone out there had any luck fixing the compression problem?
If you found this post useful, why don't you buy me a cup of coffee to show your gratitude?

I’m hoping to release a new version with this fix shortly.
