Cómo vaciar la caché en WordPress (paso a paso)

   Perhaps I would also add for people using CDNs like CloudFlare, that caching is also enabled there, and additional ‘hidden’ caches might exist on the CDN side. Either a plugin connected to the CDN can clear it, or it needs to be done manually. For instance, in CloudFlare’s dashboard, cache can be cleared in the designated section.

     That is a very good point to remember for those using CDNs

   I keep getting a notice from the MonsterInsights plugin in my Site Health that says:
   We noticed you’re using a caching plugin or caching from your hosting provider. Be sure to clear the cache to ensure the tracking appears on all pages and posts.

   I wasn’t using a caching plugin as far as I knew

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     You may want to reach out to your hosting provider to ensure there isn’t something on their end for caching that could be part of the issue.

   My host support is telling me the following when I asked them to help me clear my sites cache:

   “There is no server-side caching on any of our servers, so this message may be caused by one of your installed WordPress plugins that enables some kind of caching.”

   My question is therefore how I can locate what plugin that needs clearing. Do you know?

   Responder

   • WPBeginner Support

     You would want to go under Plugins > Installed Plugins and see if any of your plugins say in their description that they are a caching plugin.

     You would want to check with the support for your specific theme if clearing the cache is not updating your changes to ensure it is not an issue with the theme itself.

    Hi,

    I have a question please. Do I need to always clear all the cache manually using w3 total cache or any other plugin.. Isn’t it possible to make it automatically clear all cache daily.

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      The caches should clear over time based on the caching you are using, this guide is how to force it to clear in case there are any issues or something that needs to be displayed that isn’t showing.

    I have bluehost in-built cache and now I purge all cache from Wordpress and how to upload new cache memory again? also, do I need another paid cache service like wp rocket? What would be better

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      If you need another cache would be a question of personal preference. Your site will generate a new cache so you don’t need to worry about uploading a new cache.

    Is there anything I can do to stop browser caching for some pages on my website?

      It would depend on what caching you’re talking about, if it is caching from your host then you would need to reach out to your hosting provider and they should be able to show you what options are available.

    So if you have caching available (and are using) on WPEngine or Securi firewall, then is your article saying that we should NOT implement a caching plugin on wordpress?

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      No, you can still use caching on your site with those plugins, this article is to show how you clear the cache if you are having an issue that would require you to clear your cache.

    Hello to all,

    Great article. I have a closely related question.

    When I edit a page of my website in WP, it strangely shows the code of the cdn’s pull zones, not the original code. How do I get back to the original code?

      For that, you would want to check with your CDN to ensure it is properly configured as a likely cause of the problem

    Great Article! I have a question. After updating plugins do I have to clear out all my caches again? Thanks!

    Responder

      Hi Ann,

      It is not necessary as most caching plugins are setup to automatically purge cache at regular intervals. However, you can also go ahead and manually clear cache if you find something missing.

    Thank you for the helpful post! Clearing my browser cache fixed issues for me, but Is it correct to say that any repeat visitors to my site could run into issues from not clearing their own browser cache? I would like to universally clear cache so that it’s dummy proof and doesn’t require my users to go in and fix it themselves. Is that possible in any way?

    It amazes me that most important question has been ignored. How to clear cache saved in other peoples’ browsers? I.E. people who visit you wordpress website and maybe have no idea how to clear icache or that they need to do it. Thousands of plugins but not one which would add some version parameter to all website urls therefore forcing browsers to request them as new files.

    Hi!
    I use Fastest Cache and I was wondering what is the difference between

    CLEAR CACHE OF THIS PAGE
    DELETE CACHE
    DELETE CACHE AND MINIFIED CCS/JS

    Can you tell me please?

      Hi Esther,

      Clear cache of this page, removes the cached files for the page you are currently viewing. Delete cache, deletes cached files and the last deletes everything including minified CSS/JS.

        So,

        when I make changes in a specific page and someone else can’t see them, I should just use “clear the cache” of that page; but if I make changes to a couple of pages or more, I should either clear cache of each separately or use “delete cache”, which would let them see the changes in the whole site. Is this right?

        Thanks again for your patience!

        Responder

        • WPBeginner Support

          Hi Esther,

          Most caching plugins will automatically clear the cache for a page when you make changes those pages. You will only need to use those features if you are working on your website’s theme or adding some new plugin and those changes are not showing up on your website.

    When I try to install WP Super Cache, I get the message that says “Plugin not allowed on our system due to performance, security, or compatibility concerns. Contact support with any questions”. But at the bottom there’s a check to tell me that it is “compatible with your version of wordpress”. This is the same with W3 Total Cache. What is wrong?

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Cherisa,

      Some WordPress hosting companies block caching plugins because they have their own caching installed on their servers. Please contact your hosting provider to confirm.

      Looking for the same answer, Whenever making change in CSS it’s not showing till hard refresh and it’s not suggestible to ask visitor to do hard refresh. So, How we can serve new css changes to the visitors? How to clear all the cookies/browser cache file.

      As of now I am using W3 Total Cache plugin, Even after clicking on Performance > Dashboard > Empty All Caches it’s not showing new changes until hard refresh. Can you please suggest some good method for wordpress? I am not using any version css version number as well as GT Matrix suggesting to remove query string I have removed using function.php

    Good read. Didn’t know about the Sucuri caching. Also, recommending adding a tip for the browser cache. CTRL + SHIFT + R usually works just as well by forcing a refresh that bypasses cache and keeps you having to dump your browser cache, every time.
