Do I need caching plugins in addition to the CDN?

The short answer is no, the Content Delivery NetworkĀ takes care of caching for you. The CDN caches static content and stores it until it's purged via theĀ Edge CachingĀ section inĀ stackcp.com.

This means you shouldnā€™t use any additional caching plugins such as W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache.

In addition, we handle optimisation via theĀ Website Acceleration Suite.Ā The module improves website load times by automatically implementing web performance best practices to a website. This includes optimising images, JavaScript minification and combining CSS ā€“ all to improve website load times.

Therefore, you donā€™t need plugins such as WP Smush, Lazy Loading, EWWWĀ Image Optimizer or Autoptimise.
