Description

You can control the following from the Varnish Caching admin panel :
- Enable/Disable caching

- Override default TTL in posts/pages
- Purge key based PURGE

- console for precise manual purges
This plugin also auto purges Varnish Cache / Nginx Proxy Cache when your site is modified.
Varnish Caching sends a PURGE request to Varnish Cache / Nginx Proxy Cache when a page or post is modified. This occurs when editing, publishing, commenting or deleting an item, and when changing themes.
Not all pages are purged every time, depending on your Varnish / Nginx Proxy Cache configuration. When a post, page, or custom post type is edited, or a new comment is added, only the following pages will purge:
- The front page
- The post/page edited
- Any categories or tags associated with the page
Varnish Cache / Nginx Proxy Cache is a web application accelerator also known as a caching HTTP reverse proxy. You install it in front of any server that speaks HTTP and configure it to cache the contents. This plugin does not install Varnish/Nginx for you, nor does it configure Varnish/Nginx for WordPress. It’s expected you already did that on your own using the provided config files.
