 * I can’t seem to get the cache to flush when using your plugin. A lot of the other
   plugins assume that nginx is working as a front end proxy for apache, but does
   this plugin work with fastcgi_cache?

 * This plugin works both with fastcgi_cache and proxy_cache.
    When you press flush
   plugin searching cached files in nginx cache dir and tries to delete them. Probably
   your php script has no sufficient rights to delete cache files.

 * Both wordpress and nginx are running as www-data user, and I’ve checked all the
   permissions. The cache location is /var/cache/nginx. I can’t seem to find any
   reason why the script shouldn’t be able to remove
 * Are there any specific config options that must be a certain way to work?

 * Hello,
 * I’m also having trouble with “Flush All” (in the admin console, as a test).
 * I can see the AJAX request is getting executed, but the cache directory still
   has all the files.
 * Do I need to install anything on the nginx side to enable cache flushing?
