Add 3rd party support for purging Cache Enabler plugin

Ah re-read your FAQ and I guess Cache Enabler isn’t compatible. So I’ll need to find another option for this as my WordPress installer is heavily integrated with Cache Enabler for advanced Nginx level caching.

Can I use this plugin together with other page caching plugins such like Cache Enabler, WP Super Cache and WP Fastest Cache?

No. The support for these plugin was removed because you can use the fallback cache option of this plugin if you want to use a standard page cache behind Cloudflare.

In order to avoid conflicts, it is strongly recommended to use only this plugin as page caching system.

FYI, here’s why I think Cache Enabler support would be great. Did webpagetest.org benchmarks in 3 locations london, Frankfurt and Sydney comparing both configs for TTFB, Speedindex, FCP and LCP metrics for

WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache native fallback cache

versus

WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache with Cache Enabler cache

Hi @eva2000,
We have no plans to support cache enabler. As you have read in the plugins WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache comes with both disk-level cache & Cloudflare CDN cache. According to our numerous testings, our disk cache system is way better than other disk caching systems in the market as our fallback cache follows the same guidelines as CloudFlare when it comes to generating fallback cache.

Moreover, the fallback cache will only be for the first few users after which Cloudflare has already cached that page and it will be served from Cloudflare.

No page caching plugin will solve your FCP, LCP issues as the page caching plugin are only handling your page cache and not optimizing your CSS/js etc. This is an only page caching plugin.

We also heavily use this plugin on Nginx servers and having far better result than cache enabler. You can use any other optimization plugin along with this plugin for doing other optimizations (CSS, js, images), for page caching & CDN caching you need to use this only. You cannot have more than 1 page caching systems on a site.

Thanks @isaumya for the explanation.
