    20 Before reading any further or trying this plugin on your WordPress platforms and, especially before adding a rating, please **make sure** you have thoroughly studied the [FAQ](http://www.codetrax.org/projects/wp-add-headers/wiki/FAQ). This plugin might not be what you think it is. Also, this plugin might not be the right plugin for you.
     19IT IS STRONGLY SUGGESTED TO MIGRATE TO OTHER MORE MODERN AND BETTER MAINTAINED PLUGINS.

    24 In Add-Headers releases older than 2.0.0 caching was enabled by default. This resulted in several users, who didn't have the required knowledge about HTTP caching, assuming that the plugin would somehow auto-configure itself according to their web sites' special needs. So, since 2.0.0, no page is allowed to be cached by default and the [configuration](http://www.codetrax.org/projects/wp-add-headers/wiki/Configuration) of the plugin has become mandatory in order to make the dynamic pages cacheable.
     23REGARDING EXISTING USERS, AT THE TIME OF WRITING, THERE ARE NO MAJOR BUGS. PROVIDED THAT THE WORDPRESS API DOES NOT CHANGE SOON, YOU HAVE THE TIME TO EXPERIMENT WITH OTHER PLUGINS AND PLAN YOUR MIGRATION.

     31This plugin has only been used on a very few simple blogs. Therefore, it should be considered <strong>experimental</strong>.
     32
     33<br /><br />
     34
     35I do not recommend running this plugin in <em>production</em>, unless you have previously thoroughly tested it with your specific configuration, especially in complex WordPress installations. In any case, by running this plugin in production, you are on your own.

     39Please note that I no longer provide any information about the compatibility of this plugin with recent WordPress releases. Please, test it yourself, so as to be sure it works well with your configuration.

     43Due to lack of free time, there are no plans to work on this plugin in the near future. If it does not work as expected for you, I strongly suggest to look for other plugins in the WordPress Plugin Repository.
