Autoptimize is a popular performance plugin for WordPress. Among other features, Autoptimize creates and builds cached versions of optimized asset files descreasing page loading times.

Why do cached files become large?

Cached files can become large if left unchecked. This can slow page loading, increase web server load, and use unnecessary amounts of disk space.

What does this companion plugin do?

This companion plugin provides a way to set the maximum allowable cache file size for your site and, if that size is exceeded, automatically clears your Autoptimize cache and allows it to rebuild itself.

How do I access the plugin settings?

To access the plugin settings, navigate to WordPress admin dashboard -> Settings -> Autoptimize Cache Settings.

What are the available options for maximum cache file size?

The available options for maximum cache file size can be selected from the select menu in the plugin settings.

I have a theme used for several sites - this theme would allow Autoptimze cache to max out - this wonderful plugin solves that issue.

It works!

I saw a YouTube video that recommended the Cache Enabler plugin to automatically purge the Autoptimize cache. So I installed it, but it did absolutely nothing. Then I tried this plugin and it works great! Five stars!

My kind of plugin

I LOVE this simple plugin for making sure my Autoptimize caches are under control. I make sure it's installed on all my client sites. Safe. Stable. Works every time.
