Apex Edge Acceleratorv2.1.3-dev

This plugin provides fine-grained control over a site's edge cache by using surrogate keys. It is designed for site administrators and developers who need to maintain high cache performance while ensuring content updates are reflected immediately across related pages. The system tags cached responses with identifiers for the data they contain, enabling precise purging when that data changes.

Surrogate Key Tagging: Automatically tags each page response with identifiers for the posts, users, and terms it contains. This metadata allows the cache to understand the relationships between pages and data.

Intelligent Cache Purging: When content is edited, the plugin triggers a purge only for the cache entries tagged with the relevant surrogate keys. This means updates to a post can clear its single view, the homepage, archive pages, and relevant API endpoints without a full cache flush.

REST API Support: Extends surrogate key tagging and purging behavior to WordPress REST API endpoints, ensuring API responses are also kept fresh when underlying data changes.

Custom Key Integration: Developers can add custom surrogate keys for site-specific components, like sidebars or custom queries, and trigger purges when those components update using provided helper functions.

Administrative Control: Includes WP-CLI commands for manual cache management, such as purging by specific key or path, and offers filters to programmatically adjust cache max age or ignore specific post types from purge events.
