WP Optimize + Autoptimize

    Since the caching features of WP Optimize don’t include minifying, concatenating and caching of CSS and JS files ?? I am also using Autoptimize.

    I also have one stylesheet which is enqueued using a file timestamp as a version number; it is cached by visitors’ browsers until it is changed. I exclude that file from Autoptimize.

    When I make a change to that stylesheet, do I need to flush the entire WP Optimize cache, and regenerate the cache preload files?

    When another JS or CSS file is changed and I empty the Autoptimize cache, do I also need to flush the entire WP Optimize cache, and rebuild the cache preload files? Should I do that every time I flush the Autoptimize cache?

  • Hi,

    If you want the version number to be updated, you’ll have to clear the page cache in WP-Optimize. You can then preload it if required.

    Regarding Autoptimize, we just released the new version that adds direct cache clearing when purging Autoptimize cache.
    So if you I empty the Autoptimize cache, WP-Optimize cache will be emptied to. Autoptimize have also added an action to clear their cache when purging WP-Optimize cache (I don’t know if this change has been released yet).

    Marc.

    Autoptimize have also added an action to clear their cache when purging WP-Optimize cache (I don’t know if this change has been released yet).

    not yet, it’s part of AO26 which is in beta now and will probably be released around Christmas ??

    [When] you empty the Autoptimize cache, WP-Optimize cache will be emptied too.

    Will that empty all WP Optimize cache files, including the preloaded ones? If so, do I then need to run the preload again?

    Also, in normal usage, when just one page is edited, is it sufficient to just empty the page cache for that one page? (No clearing of autoptimize or WP optimize preload needed?)

    Will that empty all WP Optimize cache files, including the preloaded ones? If so, do I then need to run the preload again?

    If the preloader schedule is enabled, the cache will preload again automatically. Otherwise you may want to preload again. Maybe only when you’re sure you’re done working on the site.

    Also, in normal usage, when just one page is edited, is it sufficient to just empty the page cache for that one page? (No clearing of autoptimize or WP optimize preload needed?)

    When saving a post or page, the cache for this post will be deleted automatically, as well as the relevant associated pages when editing a Post (such as archives and categories containing the post). So you shouldn’t have to clear it manually.
