Dry run mode

    Can I suggest that this plugin has a Dry Run mode?

    This would allow debugging of certain events in the log without always having to cache-purge.

    What would be even better would be to have a tab added to the UI where the log can be viewed without file-level (FTP/etc) access!

    The logs are delightful! Just want to make sure people can see them easily.

    @harryfear this one would be difficult to do at best.

    Most of the cache clearing is done at the file system level, so while we could just simply skip deleting the files, there is no way to debug if there is an issue without actually removing them.

    The same can be said with the memory based caches as well… though, I think both redis and memcached have a way to do dry runs, along with varnish…

    I’m thinking you just openned the proverbial can of works, because now you have me thinking and planning… I cannot guarantee it will get done, but I’ll mess around and see what I can come up with.

    I do like the idea of a viewable area for the log… if logging is turned on ??

    Also, will need a way to clear it… so I will definately work on adding both of those at the least…

    (all 3 on my ToDo list as well ;), but closing out)
