Most tools only address one of these layers, leaving the rest to be cleared manually.<\/p>\n\n<p>If your site is hosted on GoDaddy or protected by Sucuri Website Security, you know the pain of logging into a separate dashboard just to flush the WAF cache after every update. Provelopers Cache Manager eliminates that step entirely.<\/p>\n\n<p>This plugin uses external services only when explicitly configured by the user.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Provelopers Cache Manager<\/strong> brings every cache layer under one clean admin interface. One click ensures your visitors always see the most up-to-date content.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Core Features<\/h4>\n\n<p><strong>One-Click Full Flush<\/strong>\nPurge every cache layer simultaneously \u2014 WAF, server proxy, and WordPress \u2014 with a single click.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Selective Cache Flushing<\/strong>\nFlush specific layers like WAF or WordPress cache independently without affecting others.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>WAF Cache Integration (Sucuri &amp; GoDaddy)<\/strong>\nConnect your WAF API credentials to purge cache directly via the Sucuri Web Application Firewall API. Fully compatible with GoDaddy Website Security (Sucuri-powered). Includes HTTP fallback if API is unavailable.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Automatic Cache Clearing<\/strong>\nAutomatically purge caches when:\n- Posts are published or updated\n- Comments are posted\n- Theme is switched<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Caching Plugin Support<\/strong>\nAutomatically detects and clears cache for:\n- WP Rocket\n- W3 Total Cache\n- WP Super Cache\n- LiteSpeed Cache\n- Any plugin using native WordPress object cache<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Persistent Audit Log<\/strong>\nTrack every cache flush with timestamp, user, and action. Logs are securely stored and manageable from the admin panel.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Real-Time Debug Panel<\/strong>\nView detailed step-by-step feedback after each manual flush to verify which layers were cleared.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Why Provelopers Cache Manager?<\/h4>\n\n<p>Unlike most cache tools that are limited to a single layer or hosting provider, Provelopers Cache Manager works across all cache layers and environments. It is lightweight, admin-only, and has zero impact on front-end performance.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Privacy<\/h4>\n\n<p>This plugin does not collect or store personal user data.<\/p>\n\n<p>If WAF API integration is enabled, the plugin sends API credentials (API Key and Secret) and cache purge requests to the Sucuri WAF service when a cache flush is triggered. No personal user data or visitor browsing data is transmitted.<\/p>\n\n<p>Logs are stored locally on your server and are not shared externally.<\/p>\n\n<h3>External services<\/h3>\n\n<p>This plugin connects to external services to perform cache purging functionality.<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Sucuri WAF API (also used by GoDaddy Website Security)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>Purpose:\nThis service is used to remotely clear (purge) the website firewall (WAF) cache.<\/p>\n\n<p>What data is sent:\n- API Key\n- API Secret\n- Cache purge request (clearcache action)<\/p>\n\n<p>When data is sent:\n- When a user manually triggers a cache flush from the dashboard\n- When automatic cache clearing is triggered (if enabled)<\/p>\n\n<p>This service is provided by Sucuri Inc.<\/p>\n\n<p>Terms of Service:\nhttps:\/\/sucuri.net\/terms\/<\/p>\n\n<p>Privacy Policy:\nhttps:\/\/sucuri.net\/privacy\/<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<p><strong>Install via WordPress Dashboard<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <strong>Plugins \u2192 Add New<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Search for <strong>Provelopers Cache Manager<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Click <strong>Install Now<\/strong> \u2192 <strong>Activate<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p><strong>Manual Installation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Download the plugin ZIP<\/li>\n<li>Upload to <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Activate from <strong>Plugins menu<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p><strong>Initial Setup<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <strong>Provelopers Cache \u2192 Settings<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Enter WAF API Key &amp; Secret (optional)<\/li>\n<li>Enable Auto Clear if needed<\/li>\n<li>Save settings<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p><strong>Get WAF API Credentials<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><em>Sucuri:<\/em>\n- Login: https:\/\/waf.sucuri.net\/\n- Navigate to <strong>Settings \u2192 API<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><em>GoDaddy:<\/em>\n- Login: https:\/\/account.godaddy.com\/\n- Go to <strong>Website Security \u2192 Manage \u2192 Settings \u2192 API<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"do%20i%20need%20sucuri%20or%20godaddy%3F\"><h3>Do I need Sucuri or GoDaddy?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No. The plugin works without WAF credentials.
