BrenWP Cache speeds up WordPress by serving cached HTML pages to anonymous visitors. On a cache miss, WordPress renders the page normally; BrenWP Cache captures the final HTML output and stores it as a file. On subsequent requests, the cached HTML is served early, reducing server load and improving response times.
This plugin is intentionally minimal, transparent, and WordPress.org-friendly: 
* No telemetry, no tracking, no “phone home” 
* No external services or dependencies 
* Admin UI assets are strictly scoped to this plugin’s pages
<h3>Key features</h3>
Full-page file cache for anonymous visitors 
* Caches full HTML documents for GET requests only. 
* Designed for the common “public pages” scenario where most traffic is anonymous. 
* Avoids caching in common non-cacheable contexts such as admin, AJAX, REST, feeds, previews, searches, and similar endpoints.
Rules to prevent caching personalized or dynamic content 
* Exclude logged-in users (recommended; enabled by default). 
* Exclude URLs (one per line): 
 – Prefix rules (e.g. <code>/checkout</code>) 
 – Wildcards (e.g. <code>/cart*</code>) 
* Exclude by cookies (useful for ecommerce/session cookies). 
* Exclude by user agent (bots, scanners, special clients). 
* Bypass query parameter: when present (e.g. <code>?nocache=1</code>) caching is bypassed for that request. 
* Optional 404 caching (disabled by default; enable only if your 404 output is safe and static).
Tools and automation 
* One-click Purge cache tool in WP Admin. 
* Optional auto-purge when posts are updated (useful for content sites that publish/edit frequently).
Security and WordPress.org compliance 
BrenWP Cache is built to meet WordPress.org review expectations: 
* Capability checks + nonces for state-changing admin actions 
* Strict sanitization/validation of input and late escaping for output 
* Cache directory is constrained under <code>wp-content/cache/brenwp-cache</code> with path safety guards 
* Cached HTML is served as a full document (not escaped) and is integrity-verified with an HMAC signature; unsigned/invalid cache is treated as a miss 
* No obfuscation, no remote calls, no dangerous execution patterns
<h3>Recommended usage (important)</h3>
A full-page cache should never store private/personalized output. For best results: 
* Keep “Exclude logged-in users” enabled. 
* Add exclusions for dynamic endpoints such as: 
 – <code>/checkout</code>, <code>/cart</code>, <code>/my-account</code> (WooCommerce) 
 – Any pages that show user-specific data, pricing, currency switching, or session-based content 
* If a page sets cookies or sends <code>Cache-Control: private/no-store/no-cache</code>, it will not be cached.

<h3>Privacy</h3>
BrenWP Cache does not collect personal data and does not send telemetry. Optional Preload requests only your own site URLs. 
Caching is file-based on your server, stored under your WordPress content directory, and controlled by your configuration.
