SuperFlare Cache – Cloudflare Cache & Auto-Purging
v2.0.4 · by Jumedeen khan
Speed Up WordPress with Cloudflare full page caching on free plan with auto-purging and bypass logged-in and comment users with advanced exclusions.
About this plugin
SuperFlare Cache turns Cloudflare’s full-page edge caching into a set-and-forget feature for WordPress — no manual Cache Rule setup, CDN configuration, or guesswork. It works on the Cloudflare Free plan and scales with Pro, Business, and Enterprise.
Normally, Cloudflare caches only static assets (CSS, JavaScript, images), so every HTML page still loads from your server. SuperFlare closes that gap with a single, self-managed Cloudflare Cache Rule that serves complete pages directly from Cloudflare’s edge.
One Rule, Automatically Managed
- Creates, updates, and removes its own Cloudflare Cache Rule as needed — never any manual dashboard work.
- Keeps the rule in sync with your settings on every save.
- Only ever manages its own rule: other Cache Rules on your zone are preserved and left in their original order.
- Bypasses logged-in users, comment authors, and password-protected pages at the edge.
- Skips non-2xx responses (redirects and errors) so temporary error pages are never cached.
Cache Control & Exclusions
- Separate Browser Cache TTL and Edge Cache TTL controls, plus Cloudflare’s Caching Level.
- Exclude page types: front page, posts page, archives, feeds, search results, 404s, and AMP.
- Bypass AJAX (admin-ajax.php), REST API (wp-json), sitemaps (.xml/.xsl), robots.txt, and URLs with query strings.
- Exclude cookies (e.g. WooCommerce/EDD cart cookies) and custom URL parameters from the cache key.
- Exclude exact paths or wildcard URLs such as
/cart/or/product/*/reviews.
Smart & Automatic Purging
- Selective purging — only changed URLs are purged, keeping the rest of the cache warm.
- Optional purging of the homepage, archives, feeds, and AMP URLs alongside the updated post.
- Automatic full purge after a theme or plugin update.
- Custom Purge URLs for anything the automatic rules don’t cover.
- Purges are queued and coalesced into one cron job, cutting API calls and avoiding Cloudflare rate limits.
- Remote Purge via a secret Cron URL — integrate with deploy scripts and CI/webhooks.
- Role-based permissions decide who can purge.
- One-click Purge Latest Post, Custom Purge, and Purge Entire Cache from Quick Actions.
Preloader
- Re-warms the cache immediately after a purge so visitors never hit a cold page.
- Optional scheduled preloading of your latest posts and sitemaps on a cron schedule you control.
- Run Preloader Now for an on-demand warm-up.
Cloudflare Optimization
Toggle Cloudflare’s performance, protocol, and security features from WordPress: Always Online, Early Hints, Crawler Hints, Rocket Loader, IPv6 Compatibility, TLS 1.3, HTTP/3 (QUIC), 0-RTT, Browser Integrity Check, IP Geolocation, and Hotlink Protection.
Visibility & Control
- Dashboard with live cache status, connection status, and quick actions.
- Activity Log of purge and cache events, plus an optional Debug/Logging mode.
- Import/Export settings between sites, and one-click Reset to safe defaults.
- Uninstall removes all data by default; a Keep Data on Uninstall toggle preserves it.
How Does It Work?
- Connect your Cloudflare account with an API Token or Global API Key.
- Select your domain and finish the Setup Wizard.
- Save your settings — done.
The plugin creates and maintains the Cloudflare Cache Rule automatically.
