I would like to recommend adding an option to remove OPcache, so that this is the only plugin that is installed in relation to Hestia, and it is good that it is an option that is only enabled for thos

Simplicity at its finest

This is a fantastic tool that works as it should and gets out of the way – always keeping the cache clean when needed. Thank you!!!

cPanel dropped the ball not having a good tried and true away to clear the NGINX cache via WordPress. Many cPanel accounts primary run a wordpress site or more. Thanks for this developer stepping up
