Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Boring Cache Warmup Lite is a lightweight, practical WordPress plugin that warms up your cache. It runs from your own site, does not connect to external services, and keeps the job boring, transparent, and privacy-friendly.

Boring tools, because they simply work.

The plugin does not use external services, tracking, cloud queues, external APIs, or CDN-hosted assets.

It is intentionally lightweight: small plugin files, local requests, conservative batches, and no extra frontend baggage.

Current free version features:

  • Tools submenu page in the WordPress admin.
  • Dashboard widget with a direct warmup button.
  • Lightweight design with small plugin files and no external runtime dependencies.
  • Nonce-protected AJAX calls.
  • Manual content selection for the homepage, pages, posts, products, and allowed public custom post types.
  • Saved content selection shared by the Tools page and dashboard widget.
  • Server-friendly default pacing to reduce timeout and overload risk.
  • Progress bar and status messages.
  • Manual stop button.
  • Compact progress by default, with an optional detailed URL log showing status, duration, and HTML payload size.
  • A clear compact, detailed, or cancel choice before detailed logging starts on large sites.
  • Technical post types such as Elementor templates and Astra Advanced Hooks are excluded by default.
