Accelerate WP for China

This plugin is designed for site administrators operating within China who need to improve the performance of their content management system. It addresses slow download speeds for core updates, themes, and plugins by redirecting requests to faster, local servers. It also provides a solution for loading user avatars by replacing the default Gravatar service.

• Custom Update Servers: Replace the default update and download servers with your own preferred, faster endpoints located within China. This directly reduces the time needed to install updates and new extensions.
• Avatar Server Replacement: Swap out the standard Gravatar avatar service for a local alternative. This ensures user profile pictures load reliably and quickly without relying on external international services.
• Configuration Control: You have full control over which servers to use. The plugin allows you to specify custom URLs for both update and avatar services, letting you choose the most reliable and fastest options available.
• Simple Integration: The tool works by filtering the core API and download URLs used by the system, requiring minimal setup to activate the acceleration features.
