Installation

  1. Install and configure Redis. There is a good tutorial here.
  2. Install the Redis PECL module.
  3. Activate the plugin network-wide or by placing it in mu-plugins.
  4. By default, the script will connect to Redis at 127.0.0.1:6379. See the Connecting to Redis section for further options.

Connecting to Redis

By default, the plugin uses 127.0.0.1 and 6379 as the default host and port when creating a new client instance; the default database of 0 is also used. Three constants are provided to override these default values.

Specify WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_HOST, WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_PORT, and WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_DB to set the necessary, non-default connection values for your Redis instance.
