How Auto Infinite Scroll differs from WP AJAX Pagination

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:

Tablet and phone users love to be able to keep scrolling rather than hitting small ‘next’ buttons, and our infinite scroll plugin adds that functionality with speed and scalability in mind.

Firstly, it automatically integrates with WooCommerce and your blogs. Secondly, it has a magic memory stored in the browser cache. This means when users click back from a specific article or product to the archive page, the archive loads instantly – no waiting for pages 1, 2, and 3 to re-load – instant loading.

How to choose between WP AJAX Pagination and Auto Infinite Scroll?

For stores where page speed translates directly into revenue, the comparison between WP AJAX Pagination and Auto Infinite Scroll is worth examining carefully. Auto Infinite Scroll's SQL-first design means performance is built into the architecture rather than bolted on afterwards. Every release is tested against a one-million-product WooCommerce catalogue, so performance scales with your store rather than against it. Try it on your staging environment using the free trial — you will see the difference immediately.

A must-have plugin if you use some option in Scalability Pro to speed up your webshop. But even without that, it really does what it says and makes the products endless scroll, making it faster for the client to scroll through the products.

After already seeing huge speed increases with the Scalability Pro plugin I decided to purchase the rest of the plugins in the WPI Performance Pack, including this Auto Infinite Scroll plugin. Within a few minutes I had configured the wrapper parameters and I was up an running. It works perfectly!! A great feature is when the user clicks on a product from the shop page and then clicks the "back" button this plugin remembers where they were on the shop page and saves them scrolling back down to where they were – this is something I've never seen before and I've used ALOT of infinite scrollers! By combining the plugins from the WPIntense I now have a Wordpress site with over 5k items on an average server with load times of under 3secs! I really can't rate WPIntense enough. In a competitive online world customer experience is everything and WPIntense have realised this. Thanks for everything!

RENE JAKOB — September 2021

Due to the good experiences with other first-class plugins from wpintense (Scalability Pro, faster-woo-widgets), we immediately purchased the lifetime licence for WPI Auto Infinite Scroll without thinking. The plugin works great and is a good extension for our (especially mobile) visitors. The support (also individual problems) immediately responded to our wishes and also suggestions for improvement. A forum is available for customers, which provides solutions within a very short time!
