How to enable/use Varnish with a WordPress Website

Step 1 : Log into N99panel. From under N99panel dashboard, click 'VHosts/Websites'


Step 2 : You will see the list of all the VHosts. Please click 'Details/Manage' link against the appropriate VHost/Website


Step 3 : Scroll down to varnish and click the pencil icon against it. Current status of Varnish would also be shown over there


Step 4 : Now select the appropriate option for Varnish.If Varnish is already disabled, choose 'Enable - config 3'.

There are five options for Varnish :

- Disable
- Enable – Config 3
- Enable – Config 2
- Enable – Config 1
- Purge/Clear-cache

The internal IP of the Varnish server is 172.16.26.1

Please put this IP w.r.t. any software/plugin which is managing varnish cache

With WordPress you can easily use Varnish and enable auto-purging of content (when it changes), by using the Proxy Cache Purge .After installing the plugin. kindly make sure that you that this plugin points to varnish server at 172.16.26.1

In some scenarios auto-purging of Varnish cache may not happen even after using the Proxy Cache Purge plugin. Then in that case Purge/Clear-cache can be used to clear the cache. To disable Varnish, simply choose the Disable option.

When Varnish and specifically, when a higher number configuration is applied, it may impact certain sections of the website in unexpected ways, as certain cookies/sessions will have no effect based on varnish configuration selection. After applying a Varnish configuration, you should thoroughly check all parts of the website, and also ensure security and privacy is not compromised.

Important : When you are doing design/coding changes of your website, please disable Varnish in that case. Varnish cache or any cache for that matter should only be enabled in production ready mode.
