WP Grid Builder - Caching

When visitors filter a grid, the site must return results for their selected criteria. WP Grid Builder – Caching stores queried content in a custom database table for asynchronous requests, so repeat requests can use cached results. This add-on suits sites with dynamic grid layouts and filtering systems, where visitors interact with grids and facets.

Cache controls are available through the WordPress admin area and toolbar. Site owners can set how long cached content remains valid, exclude particular grids or facets, and clear cache globally or for an individual page. Developers can manage cache operations with WP-CLI and adjust caching behavior with PHP filters.

Features

• Cache grid requests: Stores query results in a custom database table for asynchronous requests, reducing response times when visitors filter grids and facets.

• Set cache lifespan: Set how long cached content remains valid through the available settings or PHP filters.
• Clear selected cache: Clear cache globally or for an individual page using controls in the WordPress admin menus or toolbar.
• Manage cache with WP-CLI: Use command-line tools to clear the full cache, clear cache for specific grids or templates, and remove expired items.
• Expire and clean cache: Built-in scheduled tasks remove expired cache items, helping keep cached grid content up to date.
