 * Hi,
 * Just wanted to confirm about `/home/[MYSITE]/public_html/wp-content/advanced-
   cache.php`.
 * I received an email:
 * [https://postimg.cc/vcQ7ttRF](https://postimg.cc/vcQ7ttRF)
 * It tagged WP Super Cache but I’ve deleted that plugin already and I’m currently
   using WP-Optimize only. I try to delete `advanced-cache.php` on cPanel but it
   keeps getting auto-created. (You can find more details [here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/advanced-cache-php-gets-auto-created-please-help-me-remove-it/).)
 * Anyway, is WP-Optimize now responsible for `advanced-cache.php` ? Is it okay 
   if I just ignore it there? There are no issues on my site, I’m looking into it
   just because of the email I received.
 * Thank you.

 * The advanced cache file will be needed for most caching plugins
 * The advanced-cache.php file is used by most of the caching plugins to store information
   about full-page caching. It is used check if the cache is valid, when, and which
   cache is to be served.
