## Wp Redis Cache
======
------
Cache Wordpress using Redis, the fastest way to date to cache Wordpress.
### Requirements

Change the `index.php` to:
```php
<?php
require('index-wp-redis.php')
require('index-wp-redis.php');
?>
```
In `index-wp-redis.php` change `$ip_of_your_website` to the IP of your server
*Note: Sometimes when you upgrade Wordpress it will replace over your `index.php` file and you will have to redo this step. This is the reason we don't just replace the contents of `index-wp-redis.php` with `index.php`.
We do this because Wordpress is no longer in charge of displaying our posts. Redis will now server the post if it is in the cache. If the post is not in the Redis cache it will then call Wordpress to serve the page and then cache it for the next pageload
