Overview of Jetpack Infinite Scroll
Jetpack Infinite Scroll is a module within the Jetpack plugin suite that replaces pagination with automatic or click-triggered content loading. It hooks into WordPress's standard query loop and appends new content as the user scrolls. Being part of the broader Jetpack bundle, it comes with the overhead of the entire Jetpack framework rather than operating as a standalone feature.
How Auto Infinite Scroll differs from Jetpack Infinite Scroll
All plugins from Super Speedy Plugins share a SQL-first architecture and an uncompromising focus on performance — and Auto Infinite Scroll is no different. Here is what sets it apart:
Page-by-page navigation breaks browsing momentum, and losing their place after opening a product is worse. Auto Infinite Scroll appends the next archive page automatically or behind a Load More button, then restores the shopper’s saved position when they press Back.
Jetpack Infinite Scroll is bundled within the full Jetpack framework, meaning you carry the weight of the entire plugin to use one feature — adding overhead to every page load. Auto Infinite Scroll is a dedicated, lightweight plugin focused entirely on infinite scroll and load-more functionality, with AJAX-driven loading that uses direct SQL queries rather than full WordPress query cycles, keeping the impact on your server minimal.
How to choose between Jetpack Infinite Scroll and Auto Infinite Scroll?
If Jetpack Infinite Scroll is causing plugin bloat or you simply want a faster, more focused solution, Auto Infinite Scroll is a direct replacement without the framework overhead. Built on a SQL-first architecture and tested against one-million-product catalogues, with a free trial available.
What do others say about Auto Infinite Scroll?
I usually don't bother writing reviews but I see a few reviews here that are complaining about support and they are kinda old which I think shows the wrong impression of how it is. I have a completely different experience with support and I have never before had a chance to talk to a dev directly on Discord and that bugs and issues were resolved almost immediately. I'm using Breakdance builder which is fairly new so there were few fixes needed and now everything works fine. Also, all my suggestions for improvements were implemented … Support is 10/10!!
Excellent plugin.Integrates well with most themes with minor modifications. Massively speeds up the archive browsing process and removes uncached paginated pages (improving pagespeed scores).
Was having a problem with a competitor plugin so decided to purchase this. Worked instantly with my configuration, literally did nothing and it worked. That's how good it was. Highly recommend it, plugin developers are extremely knowledgeable and on top of everything they do.
