    Hi, thanks very much for this very useful cache plugin.

    Is it possible to include a preload cache feature so that whenever the cache is purged, the preload feature can be activated to enable automatic crawling and caching of each posts in advance, without depending on the users to create caches?

    Kind Regards

    Swagatam

    Allow me to explain the functionality of purging the cache. Essentially, when you initiate a cache purge, it is done to fetch updated content. During this process, all relevant cache for that particular instance is cleared. For example, when you update a post, not only does the cache for that specific post get purged, but also the cache for all the categories associated with that post.

    Clicking on ‘Purge All Cache’ removes the entire cache and recreates it from scratch. These actions are executed with just one click, and they happen almost instantly. The suggestion you provided may not be suitable for these conditions because when a user performs the ‘Purge Cache’ option, it doesn’t clear all the cache. Using the preload feature to create the entire cache might lead to redundancy, which is not ideal, in my opinion.

    OK, thank you very much for your reply!

    @adeelkhan actually I think you are not correct. Think this feature is just a little bit of more work than you are used with this plugin ??

    1. All competent paid plugins have this feature. This plugin is one of the only ones that does not have this feature. Even Fastest cache have this feature.

    2. It is not a redundant feature, and its really useful for e-commerce websites. We need those categories and products pre-cached otherwise loading times go up.

    3. IF you think that “Delete cache” would interfere with crawler, just program it so that crawlers are restarted everytime user clicks “delete cache (some platforms like Magento have this built-int). This shouldn’t be too hard as you state that this plugin is highly-tuned for Cloudways platform.

    4. We are expecting this preload feature for some time, otherwise you must know this will always be a “B option” caching plugin, even on your platform. I think most people just go with other caching plugin because they don’t want to bother (300k installs could probably be 500-600k if some details would be polished out).

    5. Also you are missing Breeze in WordPress toolbar on top with a feature ‘Delete cache for this page’, so we don’t have to purge the whole cache always.

    6. WPML integration to purge specific language or page on specific language would be nice. Now it just flushed everything. Imagine you have 5 languages with 500 products and no preloading option. Damn.
