Decrease amount of cached files

    Hello there,

    I am very please with your plugin, but I was wondering if there is a way to decrease the amount of files in the cache?

    For example, the wp-content/cache/asset-cleanup/_storage/_recent_items folder contains 637.720 files. And I don’t think it needs to be this much.

    wp-content/cache/asset-cleanup/js/item contains about 1080 files.

    How do I prevent these from forming, or how do I decrease the amount of files created by the plugin?

    @supervinnie41 this should never happen! My apologies for this inconvenience! It looks like your website has something particular there related to some files, and Asset CleanUp. instead of storing the most recent 20 files (just an example), it stores thousands, apparently, hundreds of thousands of files. This is not right and is against the purpose of the plugin, which is meant to optimize a website and not leave so many files there (e.g., it’s also hard when you make a backup of the website and you decide to include the cache directory there).

    Can you share with us via Dropbox or a similar service some of those files (e.g., you can archive 1000 of them in a ZIP file)? I want to analyze some of them. If you feel comfortable, you can also share with us your website’s URL. I might find the problem there as well by checking the HTML source.

    @supervinnie41, the latest version of the plugin doesn’t use the “recent_items” directory anymore, but still, I suspect there’s something particular about some of the files that are loading there. Would you like to share the URL to your website? If you are not comfortable with that, perhaps you could let me know privately the URL: https://www.gabelivan.com/contact
