 * Hi! I’m running WP-Optimize 3.1.2 in WordPress 5.5. I have the JavaScript and
   CSS minify features enabled. If I purge the cache, will the “Preload” function
   run automatically? (I have preload enabled) Also, will the minified JavaScript
   and CSS files be cleared?
 * Thanks in advance!
 * Peace…

 * [@tomdkat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomdkat/) No the minified JS and
   CSS files will not be cleared however it will clear the cached files and you’ll
   have to run the Preload button manually.
 * Thanks,

 * [@tomdkat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomdkat/) , this is possible, 
   if you want to.
 * On my website, the preload runs automatically. I have “Activate scheduled cache
   preloading” checked and set the schedule to cache lifespan.
 * So when I manually purge cache, it preloads as it senses the end of cache lifespan.
