CloudFlare(R) Cache Purge Plugin

Purge your entire CloudFlare cache, or an any specific URL, manually – or automatically everytime a post has been updated!

This plugin was not built by CloudFlare, it was built by Fifty & Fifty – a humanitarian creative studio located in San Diego, California.

1. Upload cloudflare-cache-purge folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Create a free CloudFlare account at http://www.cloudflare.com
4. Set up ‘Page Rules’ in CloudFlare to start caching your site pages
5. Enter your CloudFlare email address & API token on the plugin settings page
6. Enable ‘Automatically Purge on Update’ or click ‘Purge’ from the plugin settings page

Do I need to have a CloudFlare(R) account to use this plugin?

Yes, setting up a CloudFlare account is free and can take less than 5 minutes.

Does it purge anything on page/post creation?

Yes, if you set ‘Auto Purge on Update’ in the admin it will fire on WordPress’ ‘publish’ hook which includes new pages/posts. Typically the page/post url won’t exist in you CloudFlare cache yet so just the homepage would get purged.

If you set posts/pages to auto-purge on add/update, does the homepage URL get purged as well?

Yes, we assume that you have a blogroll that would need to be updated on the homepage.

Are any other URLs purged automatically if I set ‘Auto Purge on Update’?

No, just the page/post permalink & the homepage. You would have to manually purge any other pages that need to get updated.
