Yes, but with important caveats: * Only administrators are affected by the anti-cache measures * Regular visitors continue to see the cached site normally * Use maintenance mode to hide development from visitors * Always deactivate when finished developing * Never leave active long-term on production sites * Automatic backup ensures wp-config.php can be restored
