 * Hello:
 * Thanks for such a marvellous plugin!
    I have a problem with this cache that I
   don’t know how to solve. Question is that you can see cached pages at: /wp-admin/
   options-general.php?page=wp-cloudflare-super-page-cache-cached-html-pages But
   I always see the same 396 pages. I have manually emptied cache, disable secondary
   one, but nothing seems to work, same pages are seen. Am I missing something? 
   Thanks!

 * Only when you purge the cache from the plugin, then only those pages will be 
   removed from there. If you manually purge cache from Cloudflare dashboard you
   will see see those pages inside the plugin as the plugin doesn’t know that you
   have purged the cache for those pages.
 * Try force purging everything and then visit a few pages on an incognito tab. 
   Then when you see the list of pages, go to any of those pages from wp admin page
   purge cache for that particular page from wp admin only.

 * Hi!
    Thanks for your quick answer. I purge cache from the plugin, not Cloudflare
   dashboard, but pages remain. I have also tried to clear pages individually with
   no luck.

 * That seems wired. Can you confirm that inside `wp-content` the `wp-cloudflare-
   super-page-cache` folder has proper permission i.e. either 777 or 744?

 * Folder and subolders 755, with owner being web’s user owner.

 * Huh! This is so wired . Can you disable and enable page cache inside the plugin
   settings?

 * Done, but nothing happens. List remains the same.
    Could I remove manually files
   from FTP (cached_html_pages and fallback_cache)? Thanks!!

 * ok try that. Also inside the plugin under the others tab set log verbosity to
   high and then after you purge cache from wp admin wait for a few min and then
   check the log so you can see what’s happening.

 * Hello again:
 * Trying to empty cache from plugin is succesful, but list from /wp-admin/options-
   general.php?page=wp-cloudflare-super-page-cache-index remains non emptied.
 * I have deleted manually files from cached_html_pages. As expected, list from /
   wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wp-cloudflare-super-page-cache-index is removed.
 * As pages are visited they must be introduced in cache again. I can confirm that
   as using an extension like Live HTTP Headers with a page, I can see that value
   for cf-cache-status is HIT. However, list /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=
   wp-cloudflare-super-page-cache-index remains empty, and no new file is sorted
   in cached_html_pages directory.
 * I think that cache is working well, but cached pages are not being updated in
   the plugin for any reason….
 * Will try to analize logs as indicated. Any other clue?
    Thanks!!

 * Well, in that case, you need to check if there is something that is stopping 
   the plugin from reading, writing and deleting files from the server. As I have
   not seen such similar issues on any other client sites.

 * I don’t think so, as fallabck_cache directory is written/deleted perfectly, and
   it has the same permissions as cached_html_pages. Really strange thing.

 * Indeed it is very strange. From what I can see this function runs to delete the
   tmp files holding the cache HTML pages:

 * Mistery solved!
    If you check the option to cache only HTML pages in Cache Tab,
   it works normally. Thanks for your help!

 * I have been testing and this option has been activated/desactivated several times.
   Anyway, as I understand if you check it (empty only HTML pages), it does that,
   empty HTML but not other resources (JS,CSS).
    If you disable it, all resources
   al removed from cache. But, why doesn’t it remove HTML pages from cache list 
   when it is disable? Shouldn’t it be supossed to remove those pages anyway? Thanks!

 * – Cause then the feature is not active and it is not doing anything to the page
   list. It is only used when you enable purge cache for only HTML pages.
 * I’m marking this thread as resolved as the matter has been resolved now.
