86 ## How Does BerqWP Work?
87 BerqWP v4 introduces two optimization methods: **Local** and **BerqWP Cloud**.
88
89 **Local (Free)** runs entirely on your own server using PHP. No account, no license key, no external dependencies. It includes core optimizations: full-page caching, lazy loading, LCP preloading, image dimension attributes, URL prefetching, prerender on hover, and font optimization. It is our way of giving back to the WordPress community.
90
91 **BerqWP Cloud (Premium)** performs every optimization on our cloud infrastructure using the **Photon Engine**. This is not just a superset of Local. It is a fundamentally different level of optimization. BerqWP Cloud handles everything: critical CSS generation, WebP conversion, Fluid Images, JavaScript execution tuning, CDN delivery, and Web Vitals Analytics. Beyond features, BerqWP Cloud delivers broader compatibility with themes and plugins through real-time patches that are applied automatically as the WordPress ecosystem evolves, without requiring a plugin update.
92
93 Here’s how BerqWP Cloud works:
94
95 * The plugin sends only two things to our servers: your **page URL** and your **plugin settings**. Nothing else leaves your server.
96 * Our cloud servers fetch your page directly using Cloudflare Workers, which are far less likely to be blocked by hosting firewalls than traditional server-to-server requests. All optimization is performed on BerqWP's own cloud infrastructure.
97 * Every optimization is applied on our cloud servers: image conversion, critical CSS generation, lazy loading, JavaScript execution control, and more.
98 * Once optimized, the Photon Engine stores the **fully optimized HTML** on your website as cache.
99
100 ## �
101 Advanced Cache for Faster Server Response Time
102 BerqWP utilizes the WordPress **advanced-cache.php** file to deliver cached pages as fast as possible. By bypassing unnecessary database queries and reducing the number of files loaded on each request, BerqWP significantly improves **server response time (TTFB – Time to First Byte)**, ensuring that your pages load within milliseconds.
103
104 ## �
105 Core Web Vitals Optimizations
106 BerqWP is designed to help websites achieve high scores on **Google’s Core Web Vitals**, improving user experience and SEO rankings.
107
108 **Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) Optimization**
109
110 * **Image Preloading:** BerqWP detects the LCP element (usually an image or banner) and preloads it to ensure it loads as quickly as possible.
111 * **WebP Conversion:** All images are converted into **WebP format**, reducing file size by **70% – 85%** while maintaining quality.
112 * **Efficient Lazy Loading:** Images and background images only load when users scroll, reducing initial load time.
113
114 **Interaction to Next Paint (INP) & JavaScript Optimization**
115
116 * **JavaScript Delay:** BerqWP delays JavaScript execution until user interaction (mouse move, click, scroll, or tap), improving initial page load speed.
117 * **Multiple Execution Modes:** Choose between different JavaScript execution modes tailored to your website’s needs.
118
119 **Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) Fixes**
120
121 * **Image Dimension Attributes:** BerqWP ensures all images have width and height attributes, preventing unexpected layout shifts.
122 * **Font Optimization:** Fonts are loaded efficiently with font-display: swap to eliminate render-blocking issues.
123
124 ## �
125 Critical CSS for Instant Rendering
126 Loading external stylesheets can delay rendering, so BerqWP generates **Critical CSS** for each page separately.
127
128 * The Critical CSS contains only the styles needed for the visible portion of the page.
129 * The remaining CSS loads **asynchronously**, ensuring fast page rendering without affecting layout or design.
130
131
132 ## �
133 Fluid Images – Automatic Next-Gen Image Delivery
134 Fluid Images is one of BerqWP's most powerful features. It automatically serves each image at exactly the right size for the visitor's screen and in the best format their browser supports, without any manual work or changes to your original files.
135
136 **How it works:**
137
138 * BerqWP replaces standard `<img>` tags with responsive versions that include a full srcset of size variants: 200w, 400w, 600w, 800w, 1000w, 1200w, and the original width.
139 * Images are delivered from BerqWP's dedicated image CDN at `images.berqwp.com`, which selects the optimal format based on the visitor's browser.
140 * Format cascade: **AVIF** (smallest file size, best compression) → **WebP** (broad browser support) → **original format** (full fallback). Format selection is handled server-side using the browser's `Accept` header. The image URL never changes.
141 * Images are lazy loaded with an inline SVG placeholder that matches the exact dimensions of the original, preventing any layout shift (CLS) while the real image loads.
142 * The `sizes` attribute is automatically set using responsive breakpoints, so the browser always requests the smallest image that fills the container. No oversized images on mobile.
143 * **Original files are never modified.** File extensions remain unchanged. Format delivery happens transparently via the `Content-Type` HTTP header.
144
145 **Requirements:**
146
147 * Fluid Images must be enabled in **BerqWP > Image Optimization**
148 * BerqWP CDN must be enabled in **BerqWP > Content Delivery Network**
149 * Available on BerqWP Cloud only
150
151 ## �
152 BerqWP CDN – Global Performance Boost
153 BerqWP integrates with **Cloudflare CDN** to ensure static assets (images, CSS, JavaScript, web fonts) load from the nearest server to the visitor’s location. This results in:
154
155 * **Reduced latency** and improved website performance globally.
156 * Faster **Time to First Byte (TTFB)** for all users.
157
158 ## �
159 Font Optimization for CLS Stability
160 * BerqWP **extracts and preloads** fonts used in above-the-fold content, ensuring faster font rendering.
161 * Uses font-display: swap to **prevent text from disappearing while fonts load**, improving user experience.
162
163 ## �
164 Optimization Modes for Flexibility
165 BerqWP offers four optimization modes:
166
167 * **Standard** – Core optimizations including image optimization, page cache, and URL prefetch. Maximum compatibility.
168 * **Smart** – Asynchronous JavaScript and CSS loading. Highly stable, great for complex sites.
169 * **Blaze** – Asynchronous CSS with delayed JavaScript. Design-first optimization for high performance with visual stability.
170 * **Turbo** – Delayed CSS and JavaScript for minimal initial requests and best possible performance.
171
172 For best results, we recommend starting with **Turbo mode**, but stepping down to Blaze or Smart can help if compatibility issues arise.

On their homepage you can test your site speed and they will show you the expected Page Speed Insights score. In my experience, once BerqWP plugin is installed, your PSI scores will be higher than their estimate. Connect your Cloudflare free account and get Edge Page Caching. Then set to Aggressive mode and enjoy higher scores without changing a single setting. BerqWP is Voodoo Magic!"_

It improves loading times dramatically, to the point that I don’t really understand what’s the magic behind it (I’m not joking). I always thought that a bit more speed could be achieved at my websites, but not this much. I wasn’t aware that the servers that I use for my sites were capable of this speeds, and I always thought that part of the issue was using medium servers instead of top notch ones.Thank you so much guys! Keep doing your magic, I’ll spread the word about you as I really want you to succeed and last forever. Oh, and I really can’t believe how your plugin can exceed that much what other premium plugins achieve (I tried quite a few)."_

235 == Frequently Asked Questions ==
236
237 = Why is the plugin slug searchpro when your product is called BerqWP? =
238 Early in development we registered our plugin under the searchpro namespace on WordPress.org. Unfortunately, WordPress.org doesn’t allow slugs to be renamed once created. Rest assured, this is only a directory name. Every feature, every update, and every bit of our branding is still BerqWP. You won’t see “Search Pro” anywhere in the UI, URLs, or your dashboards after installation.
239
240 = How does BerqWP work? =
241 BerqWP offers two optimization methods. With **Local**, the plugin runs core optimizations directly on your server using PHP, with no account or license needed. With **BerqWP Cloud**, the plugin sends only your page URL and plugin settings to our servers. Our Photon Engine then fetches and processes everything directly using Cloudflare Workers, applies every optimization on our cloud infrastructure, and stores the fully optimized HTML back on your site as cache. Nothing else leaves your server.
242
243 = What are the requirements to run BerqWP? =
244 All you need is a WordPress website running on PHP 7.4 or above.

263

266
267 = Can I use the Speculative Loading plugin with BerqWP? =
268 BerqWP already includes URL prefetching feature provided by WordPress’s Speculative Loading plugin, so there's no need to use Speculative Loading with BerqWP.
269
270 = Which hosting providers are supported? =
271 You can use BerqWP with any hosting provider. If your hosting provider has a built-in speed optimizer, make sure to disable it.
272
273 = Are multilingual and e-commerce websites supported? =
274 Yes, you can use BerqWP for e-commerce and multilingual websites.
275
