- DougWebb 5y agoI'm not a WP expert either, but I did implement a CMS for my company. Caching interferes with people editing the site and getting to see the updates immediately, and the easy way out of that is to disable caching. My guess is that default WP takes the easy way out, because of their largely untrained userbase.
- tyingq 5y agoThat's interesting. Most of the WP cache plugins I've seen handle that by bypassing the cache for logged in users.

- caeril 5y agoPlenty of organizations in which the marketing or PR department maintains the company blog, not their core IT staff. This is likely their "good reason". Unpatched WP instances full of vulns are also rampant for this reason.
- oblio 5y agoOP meant the Wordpress devs should at this point include the caching plugin in the core install and enable it by default.
