How Auto Infinite Scroll differs from Pagination by BJ

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:

Auto Infinite Scroll turns paged WooCommerce and blog archives into smooth, continuous scrolling, and it sets itself up automatically on 95%+ of themes. It also does the one thing most infinite-scroll plugins get wrong: it remembers the archive in the browser, so a shopper who opens a product and clicks the back button lands at their exact scroll position instantly, with no reload.

Pagination by BJ enhances standard WordPress pagination using the existing WP_Query loop — useful but limited by the underlying query performance. Auto Infinite Scroll uses SQL-first direct queries that bypass the standard WordPress query stack, giving faster AJAX responses that are particularly noticeable on large product archives where WP_Query overhead accumulates.

How to choose between Pagination by BJ and Auto Infinite Scroll?

Pagination by BJ is a competent AJAX pagination tool, but stores with large catalogues will benefit from the SQL-first architecture of Auto Infinite Scroll — where faster query execution translates directly into smoother infinite loading. Tested against one-million-product catalogues, with a free trial available.

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.

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!

What's new in Auto Infinite Scroll?

1.64 (20th May 2026)

  • Updated the Super Speedy Settings page: added a "Recheck Licenses" button above the licence table so customers have a clear way to refresh licence status after a renewal or upgrade without scrolling down to the licence-key field. The button is disabled until a licence key is entered/saved and re-enables as you type.
  • The Recheck flow now also force-bypasses the auth-server's own 1-hour licence cache (via a `force=1` flag on the `wpiapi/check_product_key` call), so renewals/upgrades that completed less than an hour before a recheck no longer show as expired/exceeded. Normal admin page loads continue to use both caches as before — only an explicit Recheck click bypasses them. (Lives in the `super-speedy-settings` submodule, so the change propagates to every Super Speedy plugin.)

1.63 (13th March 2026)

  • Fixed Woo Variation Swatches not initializing on products restored via magic back button history
  • Fire third-party plugin re-initialization events after restoring archive from local storage

1.62 (18th November 2025)

  • Added full namespacing for plugin update checker to prevent conflicts with 3rd party plugins
