I have been looking for a plugin like this for a long time. With Redis full page caching, they are only added to the cache on first load and then dropped after 4 hours in the cache. This is a really nicely made plugin that will preload these files into cache at regular intervals. It’s an amazing plugin.

I waisted so much time with other “top” plugins trying to fix preloading cache and then this plugin shows up and simply did the job. Masterful work! Thanks

This is a well thought-out plugin. A notable feature is that the log shows these three headers: cf-cache-status, x-cache and X-WP-Super-Cache. Which means you’ll know at one glance the status of Cloudflare’s edge cache, httpd’s mod_cache disk cache, and, I suppose, the WP Super Cache plugin’s less efficient disk cache if that’s what you’re using.

Thank you for this plugin. It is a lifesaver, when you need a reliable cache warming tool. In my installation the standard preload of WP Rocket didn’t work as expected. I tried to find a solution for months. Cache warmer now reliable preloads all given sitemaps in a defined interval.

This plugin has dramatically helped my sites perform better and increase their speed and TTFB. Even with great hosting and really good caching setup (Cloudflare etc) you still have a speed issue when the pages of your site need to go to the cache for the first time. This plugin causes your site pages to be loaded into cache and hence visitors get a great experience. This plugin is even more useful for sites with smaller traffic as your caching solution needs refreshing regularly and you can set this plugin to refresh cache on a regular interval. The support has also been excellent as a plugin like this can have issues across many different hosting setups. Dale.

Everything you need for warming/crawling/preloading your cache! Fast, simple, with all the options needed to make it functional for most websites (add user agents, header, interval, warm after page update, …). And lovely support that listens to the needs of the users. Great alternative if your host has disabled the LSCache crawler on your Litespeed server.
