    Sorry, but the home page is not purged when articles are being published and I have proven that to your “support” which obviously blames Cloudflare Enterprise and 300$ monthly hosting companies.

    We installed FlyingPress due to it’s excellent caching features and quickly found that we were seeing better performance scores than what we could squeeze out of wp-rocket. The few little issues we did run into during setup was quickly addressed by FlyingPress support. This is what a 5 star WordPress plugin looks like 🙂

    Although I can not find information why some of the “Ignore keywords” are prefilled (like .webp and the other images), I do really like the Flying Pages plugin! Like the review titles says, Flying Pages letteraly created a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing!

    The latest version of FP is starting to break my site often now. Before, it was a blank white screen; now it’s saying ‘featured not enabled.’ The support is unapologetic This topic was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by edwardsmithjr. Reason: wrong rating
