 * Hello,
 * What is the solution for the Sitemap URL section for a multisite network with
   more than one sitemap URL?
 * Thank you.

 * Hello [@natasha006](https://wordpress.org/support/users/natasha006/),
    Thank 
   you for your inquiry. Go to Performance –> General Settings Tab, scroll down 
   to the Miscellaneous section near the bottom. There, you need to uncheck “Use
   single network configuration file for all sites.” W3 total cache doesn’t support
   multiple sitemaps in cache preload so you need to configure subsites individually.
   I hope this helps.

 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Do you think that it is a logical solution to uncheck it and use of individual
   sitemap URL for each site?
    Is it worth it?

 * Hello [@natasha006](https://wordpress.org/support/users/natasha006/),
 * If you need the warm cache often, you can benefit from cache preload so this 
   could prove to be very useful. It really depends on what you want to achieve.
   
   W3 Total cache is offering you the freedom to set up the plugin the way it best
   suits your needs.

 * Hello [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)
    Thanks for assisting
   me.
 * There is an inquiry for me.
    We assume that we are on the cold cache (Cache Preload
   is off) After the cache is expired (3600 seconds default), W3TC will not create
   a new one until a user is visiting the site? right?

 * Hello [@natasha006](https://wordpress.org/support/users/natasha006/),
 * The pages need to be visited in order for cache to created. If you are not using
   Cache Preload, and If The TTL of page cache files is set via the “Expires header
   lifetime” field in the “HTML”, the cache will expire depending on “Expires header
   lifetime”.
    If the cache is expired and cache data is removed, pages need to 
   be revisited in order to be cached. I hope this helps.
