Getting cPanel and NGINX cache talking
by hefin·2 years ago·3 replies

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 and getting an in WordPress NGINX clear cache option enabled in WordPress dashboard. Would be great to get some intellegnet cache control to clear the cache for when pages/posts or products are updated. Not sure the nginx cache allows for the fine grain purging though.
