Invalidate cache by using URL

Not using the native WP Engine function as it stands now since that is based on post number.

Accepting a post link probably wouldn’t take much to implement, since I could potentially root out the post URL, but then that would be an issue if the URL wasn’t a post.

I plan on trying to rewrite that function to hit varnish directly, but I don’t know exactly the best way to get that done.

I’ll do some digging and look for the feasibility of something like this.

What exactly are you looking to purge?

Well, we have custom implementation where we intercept URL and serve the page using PHP function via plugin, and as you said the URL isn’t a post/custom type.

Is it possible to purge that particular page? Purge all page cache is too expensive.

Thanks for your efforts!

Definitely makes sense, I’ll see what I can do after I flush out the rest API stuff. I see a filter I should be able to call to alter the cache purge paths, so I’ll experiment with that and adding another method to make it work.

This functionality will exist in v 1.3.0.

Hey Fahmi!

I apologize for the delay in getting this done. This functionality has been added as part of the 1.3.0 update as previously stated.

If you see anything not behaving as expected, or have any other requests, please do not hesitate to let me know!

Thanks!
