  • Solved issue with one problem theme - thank you

    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!

  • Works like a charm!

    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.
