    Hi

    I’m using W3TC capability to cache pages for logged in users
    My question is how can I programmatically purge the page cache for specific logged in user/s?

    This flexibility is crucial and I guess is somehow available

    Thanks

    Hello @eddr

    Thank you for your inquiry and I am happy to assist you with this.
    As a general rule, it is not recommended to cache pages for logged in users. as you can see in the description unauthenticated users may view a cached version of the last authenticated user’s view of a given page. Disabling this option is not recommended.
    This being said there is no way to programmatically purge the cache for a specific user as the cache is built per user but per page visit and there is no way the plugin can tell for which user the page was cached.
    Thanks!
