How to Use This Plugin

If you follow the settings above, the plugin will begin caching your website, which is storing the pages to load faster. To test this, you will need to log out of your site.

How to Clear the Cache

Whenever you make a change to your website that you want to go live, you need to clear the plugin cache, or the change may not be made live.
