It is not supported by 000webhost, that’s why :slight_smile:

#11

and does 000webhost support ewww images

Hi @athak

Cache plugins are not allowed in 000webhost as it is a free platform. You can upgrade to use those.

I’m not sure whether 000webhost supports ewww image plugin. Can you tell us why you need those plugins?

W3 cache plugin is a bad plugin anyway it causes errors you should use some other cache plugin like WP super cache made by wordpress it may work. Dont use any other like wp rocket or wp fastest cache.
