## वर्णन

**The Cache Purger** takes the headache out of cache management. Instead of juggling
a dozen different cache-clearing buttons across your stack, this plugin hooks into
WordPress actions and fires them all at once — automatically, on a schedule, or 
with a single click from the admin bar.

It covers the full spectrum: popular caching plugins, managed hosting environments,
PHP-level caches (OPcache, APC, WinCache), server-level caches (Nginx, Varnish, 
PageSpeed), in-memory stores (Redis, Memcache, Memcached), and external CDN/WAF 
APIs (Cloudflare, Sucuri, Fastly).

**Every purge is configurable.** Choose which cache types to include, which WordPress
events should trigger a purge, and which specific posts, pages, CPTs, or field groups
to exclude. You can also run purges on a WP Cron schedule, or kick one off manually
via WP-CLI.

#### What Gets Purged

**Caching Plugins**

Flying Press, SiteGround Optimizer, Nginx Helper, LiteSpeed Cache, Cachify, Autoptimize,
Fast Velocity Minify, WP Rocket, Swift Performance, Comet Cache, Hummingbird, WP
Fastest Cache, WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, Hyper Cache, WP-Optimize, Cache Enabler,
NitroPack, Divi, Elementor, WP REST Cache, and more.

**Hosting Environments**

WP Engine, Kinsta, GoDaddy Managed WordPress, Pantheon, Bluehost, Cloudways (Breeze),
SiteGround, RunCloud, SpinupWP.

Some of these rely on the host’s companion plugin being installed. Check with your
provider if you’re unsure.

**Server & PHP Caches**

Zend OPcache, APC/APCu, WinCache, XCache, Nginx (fastcgi/proxy cache), PageSpeed
Module, Varnish, static file caches.

**Memory Stores**

Redis, Memcache, Memcached — with support for remote servers, authentication, per-
database flushing, and prefix/key-scoped clearing.

**CDN & WAF APIs**

Cloudflare (full cache purge via API token), Sucuri WAF, Fastly CDN.

**WordPress Built-In**

Object cache, options cache, transients, persistent object cache.

#### Purge Triggers

Configure purges to fire automatically on any combination of the following WordPress
events:

 * Post save / update / trash
 * Page save / update / trash
 * Custom Post Type save / update / trash
 * Taxonomy / term save / delete
 * Category save / delete
 * Menu save / delete
 * Widget save / delete
 * Customizer save
 * GravityForms form save / trash _(requires GravityForms)_
 * Advanced Custom Fields field group save / trash _(requires ACF)_
 * WooCommerce settings save _(requires WooCommerce)_
 * Plugin activation / deactivation
 * Core / plugin / theme updates
 * Plugin settings save _(this plugin’s own settings page)_

Exclusion lists are available for posts, pages, CPTs, GravityForms forms, and ACF
field groups — so you can carve out anything that shouldn’t trigger a purge.

#### Additional Features

 * **Admin bar button** — Master Cache Purge available on every admin page, one 
   click from anywhere.
 * **Purge log** — Optional logging of every purge action to `wp-content/purge.log`,
   viewable directly in the settings UI with a one-click clear.
 * **Scheduled purges** — WP Cron / Action Scheduler integration with any built-
   in schedule.
 * **Scheduled log clearing** — Keep your log file tidy on its own schedule.
 * **Export / Import settings** — Move your configuration between sites in seconds.
 * **Multisite aware** — Cannot be network-activated by design; activate per-subsite
   for granular control.

## स्थापना

 1. Download the plugin, unzip it, and upload to your site’s `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory.
 2.  * Alternatively, upload the zip directly via **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**.
     * Or search for “The Cache Purger” in the WordPress Plugin Repository and install
       from there.
 3. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 4. Navigate to **The Cache Purge** in your admin menu to configure settings.

**Requirements:** PHP 8.2 or higher. WordPress 6.0 or higher.

## नेहमी विचारले जाणारे प्रश्न

### Why would I need this plugin?

If you find yourself manually clearing caches in multiple places after every site
update — or if you want to automate that process entirely — this plugin handles 
it all from one settings screen. It’s especially useful on sites with complex stacks:
a CDN in front, a caching plugin active, and a server-level cache underneath.

### Which cache types are purged by default?

On a fresh install, Plugin Caches, WordPress Caches, Server Caches, and Memory Caches
are all enabled. API/CDN caches (Cloudflare, Sucuri, Fastly) are opt-in, since they
require API credentials.

### How do I set up Cloudflare, Sucuri, or Fastly purging?

Go to **The Cache Purge > API/Server Settings**, enter your credentials, and make
sure “API Caches” is included in your **Caches To Purge** selection on the Settings
tab.

### How do I configure remote Redis, Memcache, or Memcached servers?

Also under **API/Server Settings**. Enable the relevant toggle, then add your server
IP(s), port(s), and any authentication or database details. Multiple servers are
supported.

### Can I exclude specific posts or pages from triggering a purge?

Yes. When you enable purging for posts, pages, or CPTs, an exclusion selector appears
below it. Any content selected there will be ignored when saved or updated.

### How do I run a purge from the command line?

`wp the_cache purge`

Add `--allow-root` if running as root. On a multisite, add `--url=https://yoursite.
com` to target a specific subsite.

### Why can’t this plugin be network-activated on a multisite?

By design. Activating per-subsite gives each site its own independent configuration,
which is almost always what you want in a multisite environment.

### Where is the purge log stored?

At `{ABSPATH}wp-content/purge.log`. Enable logging under **Settings > Log Purge 
Actions?** and it will be viewable directly in the **The Purge Log** tab. You can
clear it manually from that tab, or set it to auto-clear on a schedule under **CRON
Action Settings**.

Most of my customer sites use multiple caching plugins. Customers get confused about
different buttons like “Clear cache”, “Flush cache”, “Empty cache” etc.This plugin
solves that!Besides, you can set automatic clearing on a lot of different hooks,
even for CPT’s and Forms. The support is at lightning speed, a request for support
of another caching plugin was developed within a week! Thank for this brilliant 
plugin Kevin.

We use this plugin on over 150 sites to keep caches cleared, including Cloudflare.
Been working great, had an issue briefly, associated with a particular “unusual”
hosting platform. Asked developer about it and he fixed it within a week! Plugin
clears all kinds of caches: OP cache, object cache, server caches. If you’ve been
using the Cloudflare plugin to keep that cache cleared, particularly when developing,
you won’t need it anymore as this plugin communicates directly with Cloudflare via
API. Highly recommended plugin; invaluable in this day where we have multiple caches
that can cause issues with maintaining fresh data for clients.

Massively buggy. A bunch of cdn image try to load at the admin settings page and
it loads and crashes right away. i finally got that to stop by just removing the
cdn stuff from the plugin file and then found there isn’t actually a setting for
bluehost :/big waste of time. but a good idea in theory.

Hi Right after the first click in the settings page, everything disappears, so I
couldn’t use the plugin at all as I couldn’t set up anything.

Now, we got the option to purge selected type of cache only. The plugin developer
swiftly updated the plugin with required features.

This plugin, in tandem with WP Rocket on WordPress.com hosting (Business Plan), 
does a deeper and more effective purge of my site’s cache. Sure, WP Rocket has its
own purge, but it does not go as deep. This plugin really does assist in making 
things right. Thank you 🙏
