It should work right away as long as you have disabled and removed WP-Cache. Then in WP-Supercache go through all options and select what is best for you. Make sure you scroll down and have it update your .htaccess file for you.
These are the options I use:
ON WP Cache and Super Cache Enabled
Uncheck – Don’t cache pages….
Uncheck – Proudly tell the world…
Checked – Clear all cache files…
Checked – Chache rebuild….
Uncheck – Coarse file locking…
Uncheck – List the newest cached…
Checked – Mobile device support…

Further down:
Super Cache Compression – Enabled

Mod Rewrite Rules:
Let it do the updates.

The rest of the options should be fine and you can update them as you like.

Hope this helps

thx, “My recommendation is to remove WP-Cache and install WP-Supercache. ” — did this and didn’t seem to work., is there any waiting time before it “should” work? or is it automatic?

[...] Errors. Let me know if you have a problem with the site and I will switch it back to my Custom WP-Cache plugin. You can get the WP-Super-Cache Plugin [...]

My recommendation is to remove WP-Cache and install WP-Supercache. I switched to Supercache a while ago and I have not had a problem since. No editing of WP-Supercache needed, just install and activate. It is updated regularly and works really well with GoDaddy.

I uploaded the file, installed, kept all defaults, just tried to update a scheduled post and still got error. Have worked on this 3 days and godaddy wont acknowledge it. have tried so many things and was hoping this would be the fix. any ideas on where to go from here?

Also… am not sure where to find compression. wanted to double check that. it’s not listed under misc

To all those using godaddy, sometimes they have small errors that just seem to happin. Some by hacker and someothers just by accident. One of the many corrected issues i had to resolve was for some reason the file upload was turned off. I have gone through many errors with this company but with patients and many emails they were resolved. And always have strong passwords Bob@!!.lhg or something i had many errors cause by hacker playing in my playground,

They may have changed some files in the WordPress install. I would refresh all the wordpress files by backing up all the wordpress files then deleting all the WordPress files except the config and template. Then reupload a fresh copy of WordPress. That way if they messed with some of the files then that will fix it.
(Always backup first)
