About this tool.
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.
