Clear cache via php code

Resolved yydevelopment

Hi, i have few plugins I developed and a lot of custom code i created myself.

Is there a way for me to run php function and clear your cache without the button on the top bar?
Also is there a CLI command that allow to do that as well?

Will be great if it’s possible for regular cache and cloudflare cache.

Thanks

If you want to purge the cache created by the plugin:
```
<?php
$tag = substr(md5(__DIR__ . '/system/library/lscache'),0,4);
header("X-LiteSpeed-Purge:" . $tag);
```
If you want to purge the entire cache:
```
<?php
header("X-LiteSpeed-Purge:*");
```
To purge the cache only from CLI:
```
if (php_sapi_name() === 'cli') {
$path = dirname(__FILE__);
$tag = __DIR__ . '/wp-content/plugins/litespeed-cache/';
$tag = substr(md5($tag), -3) . '_';
header("X-LiteSpeed-Purge:" . $tag);
}else{
header('HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden');
$contents = file_get_contents($path . '/403.shtml', TRUE);
exit($contents);
}
```
403.shtml
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html style="height:100%">
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no" >

<div style="text-align: center; width:800px; margin-left: -400px; position:absolute; top: 30%; left:50%;"><h1 style="margin:0; font-size:150px; line-height:150px; font-weight:bold;">403</h1>
<h2 style="margin-top:20px;font-size: 30px;">Forbidden</h2>

</html>
```
Copy the code from above into a blank PHP file and place it in document_root.

```
<?php
require( './wp-load.php' );
if ( defined('LSCWP_V')) {
  do_action( 'litespeed_purge_all' );
  echo 'done';
}
```
can use this one , it will call plugin’s purge API

Thanks for both of you,
I sometimes update the sites via SSH,

Is there a command i can use there as well to clear everything or does it require access to php and wp-load.php?

Also does do_action( ‘litespeed_purge_all’ ); clear cloudflare as well?
Does the api code offer a way to clear cloudflare as well or only the plugin cache?

you can run rm -rf /path/to/your/lscache/ but not suggested , as rm command is always dangerous

it is better to use do_action( ‘litespeed_purge_all’ ); as it also clears object cache , generated JS/CSS files …etc

no , it doesn’t purge CF

Thank you and sorry about the late reply.
So just making sure, is there an action i can use to clear cloudflare as well?
