Preloader info

    Hi I was wondering you’d be able to share a bit more info on how the preloader works.

    Is it a bot that crawls through the site?

    Does it access a sitemap to determine which pages to preload etc?

    Is there a delay between each page accessed to help reduce server load?

    Can I trigger the preload without having to go into the plugin settings and press the button?

    Does the preload run after the cache is cleared manually or automatically after content is updated/published?

    Hi @lsbwebdesign ,
    sorry for the late reply.

    I fixed the preloader on git and I will release it on next version (4.2).

    Is it a bot that crawls through the site?

    Is there a delay between each page accessed to help reduce server load?

    It’s not a bot but a background wordpress process that makes a get request to some URLs. After each request, it waits 0,5 seconds.

    Does it access a sitemap to determine which pages to preload etc?

    Not now but I will add this logic as soon as possible ’cause it is intelligent.

    Can I trigger the preload without having to go into the plugin settings and press the button?

    Does the preload run after the cache is cleared manually or automatically after content is updated/published?

    From version 4.2 you will have an option to automatically start the preloader when cloudflare cache are purged.
