Manually Preload with Cron Job

The preload starts to work when the cache is cleared.

Then I don’t understand what preload does, I thought it recreates the cache.
So instead, I will do what hosting suggests, which is

1. add ‘define(‘DISABLE_WP_CRON’, true);’ in wp-config.php
2. create cron job that runs every thirty minutes the command /usr/local/bin/php /home/user/public_html/wp-cron.php

then I will enable preload and in Cache Timeout clear The All Cache once a day. Will this refresh the cache automatically once a day? That’s what I want to happen, make the cache refresh and preload even if no one visits the site.

Everything is true. The preload starts to work when the cache is cleared. How many posts do you have?

You have a great plugin but I don’t have time right now to exchange emails with you, especially when you don’t answer my questions from my last email. There’s only 1 post and seven or 8 pages. As I tried to explain at the beginning, I look at a page before and after doing your-site.com/?action=wpfastestcache&type=preload and the page shows the same day/time it was created by fastest cache, so it doesn’t update the cache, and you keep saying clear the cache and cache is cleared, but the only way I know to do that is to login and click the logo in the admin bar and then click the button to clear the cache, and that’s all manual and I need this to happen using a cpanel crontab cron job. Thanks.

I have already answered!

The preload feature does not re-create the cache. The cache must be cleared first. and later the preload can start. ok?

thank you for your answer

You are welcome.
