Performance settings

Options

Key Default Notes
cache_ttl_seconds 3600 Object-cache TTL for recipe queries. Keys are prefixed pxr_.
lazy_load_images true Native loading="lazy" on all card and gallery images.
inline_critical_css false Inline a ~3 KB critical CSS payload in <head>.
defer_non_critical_scripts true Add defer to Swiper and other frontend JS.
load_swiper_only_on_sliders true Skip the Swiper bundle on pages that don’t render a slider view.
flush_caches (button) Clear all object-cache entries with the pxr_ prefix. Useful after editing a category or bulk-importing recipes.

Cache scope

The cache key includes the query args (orderby, limit, filters) so different shortcodes don’t collide. A recipe’s individual cache is invalidated automatically on save.

If you use an external object cache (Redis, Memcached), the TTL respects your wp_cache_* backend. On hosts without persistent caching, values live only for the request.
