Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Warm Cache

Set a define in your wp-config (at the top, newline, after <?php ) with name MP_WARM_CACHE_NO_LOGGING_AT_ALL and value "yes" Example Please check https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/warm-cache/trunk/readme.txt#L38 DO not copy directly below due to the "curly quotes" define('MP_WARM_CACHE_NO_LOGGING_AT_ALL', 'yes');
Ask your webhost how to set up a get call using wget or curl. See Installation for instructions howmany times you should call the cronjob. The plugin shows an error, it cannot read the XML sitemap The fact that you are able to "see" the XML in your browser does not guarantee that PHP is able to read it too. Consult your host about this, if that fails. https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-with-google-xml-sitemaps/ Sucuri / Audit log notifies about new posts beeing created We use the hidden post type warmcache to store statistics. We also remove them upon each crawl. Feel free to ignore creation of posts with warmcache. See https://wordpress.org/support/topic/29-september-2016-update-causing-constant-post-update-notifications-from-secur/ I have set up the cronjob but the stats table on the plugin page remains empty. @see The plugin shows an error, it cannot read the XML sitemap
Set a define in your wp-config (at the top, newline, after <?php ) with name MP_WARM_CACHE_FILTER_LIMIT and value INTEGER Example Please check https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/warm-cache/trunk/readme.txt#L58 DO not copy directly below due to the "curly quotes" define('MP_WARM_CACHE_FILTER_LIMIT', 25);
