 * Hi,
 * I’m currently trying to setup this plugin on an nginx server, but instead of 
   storing the files in wp-content/cache/ (Because we don’t allow files to get written
   by the application to this folder).
 * How can I then make it put all the caching files within the /tmp/ folder on the
   server?
    Do I need to take any steps, like moving files around, edit some or 
   something?
 * Best regards,
    Zerpex

 * Edit wp-content/wp-cache-config.php and change $cache_path to “/tmp/”.
