Introduction

The Content Delivery Network (CDN) Plugin for nopCommerce by NopAdvance LLP is an essential tool designed to enhance the performance and reliability of your online store. By seamlessly integrating with popular CDN services, this plugin ensures that your website's static content, such as images, CSS, and JavaScript files, are efficiently distributed across a global network of servers. This not only reduces the load on your primary server but also significantly improves page load times for visitors, regardless of their geographical location. With an easy-to-use configuration interface, the CDN Plugin allows store owners to effortlessly optimize their website's speed and user experience, leading to higher customer satisfaction and better search engine rankings.

Configure

This plugin comes bundled with the NopAdvance Core plugin, which is a prerequisite for its operation. Please follow the plugin installation instructions available here to proceed with the setup.

After successful installation, navigate to the plugin menu by selecting NopAdvance > Plugins > CDN > Configure from your nopCommerce admin dashboard. This should reflect a menu similar to what is shown in the following image.

Click on the configure menu item to open the plugin configuration page. On the configuration page, you need to enable plugin and set CDN URL path for each file type as shown in the image below.

In case if the plugin is enabled and you haven't provided path for a setting, that setting would not work. This means that the plugin will work only for file types where the CDN URL path is not blank.
