Clear All Cache for WP Super Cache Plugin

Clear all cache for WP Super Cache adds a menu entry to the admin menu to clear the cache completely .

The plugin clears completely the cache from WP Super Cache, directly from the admin menu.

We created this plugin, in order to be able to clear the cache completely from the admin menu and not having to navigate to CONTENTS tab in WP Super Cache Settings.

In some configuration WP Super Cache shows a menu entry to empty the cache in the menu, but it only empties the cache from the current page. See: The “Delete Cache” button on the admin menu only deletes the cache for the current page.
Nevertheless in the majority of the sites that have WP Super Cache installed it doesn’t display this menu entry.

Please note that this menu option is only visible for WordPress ADMINISTRATORS.

This is an add-on to WP SUPER CACHE:
Please keep in mind that this plugin is an add-on to the WP SUPER CACHE plugin. You need to install and activate WP SUPER CACHE so that this add-on works.
