Introducing Quests: Tailored gamification & bridging in-person events with your community Mike Gitkos Friday at 12:39 PM2 days
Posted April 28, 20187 yr I've been going through what is hopefully a phase where I'm trying to make the site as quick as possible. My goal is to make it as fast as the Invision Community site, though that might not be possible because of all of the images and custom theme on my site. Thought I'd make this thread so that we can share some ideas :). Compressing images: here's a good website: http://compressimage.toolur.com/ Using Cloudflare cache, css minification, mobile optimizer, image compressor argo routing rather than setting up the website on multiple webservers around the world since my community isn't small but it's not HUGE. $20 plan's benefits (started with free which was an improvement but I decided to try the $20 plan). Switching to nginx (though this was mainly because we were having some issues with Litespeed). Upgrading PHP to 7.2 (holy fudge it's so much faster than 5.x) Upgrading to IPS 4.3 (seems like the IPS team made a lot of under the hood optimizations.. thank you guys!!!) What about you guys?

Helped mine no end too especially leaderboard issues I was having. Personally though I've never been sure of the best htaccess setup to have for expires and all that stuff Edited May 1, 20187 yr by marklcfc

When converting MyISAM to InnoDB, is it just a case of switching the Engine from one to the other? I use HeidiSQL, so can I just switch and the save? There isn't anything more to do is there?
