Essential WordPress Plugins
Also, since many users ask what plugins are installed on MihanWP (even one user said I only check your tutorial videos to find out what plugins you are using 😀), we decided to use some plugins that are on WordPress Homeland 😀 We can introduce them in this list.

In fact, with this plugin, you can have a professional website and provide more features to your site users. As a webmaster, you need to identify which of the thousands of free and professional plugins you need. This tutorial can be handy for those users who have just installed their WordPress website.
Light Speed Cache Plugin
But if Apache is displayed in this section, you can not use LightSpeed , and you have to use other plugins. Because we are now doing this test on localhost, it is naturally Apache, and you must do this option on your main website.
Most Iranian hosting companies use LightSpeed , and 90% of the time, using LightSpeed Cache is good and will work for you. We enable it now, but it has little effect on local hosts.
But there is a tip to use when using Light Speed Cache. From the tools section, enter the health of the slide and click on the information on the page that opens for you. In the server tab, if the webserver option was Light Speed or Open Light Speed, you can use this plugin.
After installing this plugin on your site, a section called Lite Speed Cache will be added to your WordPress admin panel containing the plugin’s general settings. Here we review the available sets of this plugin in general.

Then enter the cache section. Here all caches except mobile cache should be turned on, and then you should save your changes. Now with the few changes you have made, you will notice that the speed of your site has improved a bit.
