 * Hello,
 * We are using W3 for long time, and ready for go pro, and here are some question
   before go ahead just in case there will some potential issues:
 * It seems there are several cache methods, and we are already use Nginx Fastcgi
   cache at our Nginx server end.
 * So, are these cache method compatible or matched? is there any potential issue
   to enable both Nginx Fastcgi and W3 Total Pro? if yes, any suggestions so that
   we can get our work ready?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hello [@alexliii](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexliii/)
 * Thank you for reaching out.
   There is no problem with using any of the cache Methods
   in W3 Total Cache with the Nginx Fastcgi cache.The only thing that should be 
   pointed out, in this case, is that when you Purge the W3 Total Cache, the Nginx
   Fastcgi cache needs to be purged manually since W3 Total Cache does not control
   this.So if you are making any changes and purging the cache, if the changes do
   not reflect you also need to purge the Nginx Fastcgi cache or wait for the cache
   to expire.Thanks!

 * Hello [@alexliii](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexliii/) 
   Thank you for
   your feedback. This is something that you should test and see if it helps, however,
   it’s outside of the W3TC scope.Thanks!
