In reply to Hazel. I'm glad that you solved the issue and share your solution here. Are you releasing your own mobile responsive theme?

Just an update… I got W3TC to work on my responsive theme! The problem was that my responsive theme was using separate CSS files for print, device, tablet, and screen. So when I minify the CSS using W3TC, it messed up the theme.

The solution… I compiled all CSS files into one CSS file and used media queries instead. This time the minify CSS function of W3TC worked. Plus this reduced http requests which is great for website speed.

In reply to Tuan Do. I did check techwalls.com on the iPhone and it looked fine. I probably have to tweak the W3TC settings to make it work. Thanks!

Hi Hazel,
TechWalls is using a mobile responsive theme and I installed the W3TC plugin as well. It works quite good and I haven’t seen my layout messes up yet.
Do you see any problem on this site?

Has anyone tried to use W3 Total Cache with a mobile responsive theme? I am developing a WordPress site with a responsive theme. Speed is a main priority so I installed W3 Total Cache.

It totally messed up the site in both desktop and mobile view.

Do you know of any caching plugins that work with mobile responsive themes? Thanks!

Good Host + W3Cache + Cloudflare is like 90 PageSpeed / 90 Yslow … it’s all that third party plugins that kill speed ..

In reply to Jai. Yes, W3 Total Cache is my favorite cache plugin as well. They could work well with CloudFlare and MaxCDN and there is nothing to complain about it. That's great as it is still free. :)

along with all these using a cache plugin (preferably w3 total cache) is must have for every blog for proper caching…

In reply to iPhone Service Center Chennai. Yeah, apart from creating a mobile version, we can also use a mobile responsive theme like I mention above to make our website mobile-friendly.

w3-total cache is a must install plugin. It works great with CDN too.
