<h3>Hooks</h3>
<p>FastPixel provides WordPress action hooks that allow developers to programmatically trigger cache purges and react to cache events. This is useful when integrating FastPixel with custom plugins, WooCommerce, ACF, or any workflow that modifies content outside the standard WordPress editor.</p>
<p>Example hooks:<br />
do_action(‘fastpixel/purge/all’); – Purges the entire site cache.<br />
do_action(‘fastpixel/purge/single’, [‘id’ => 123]); – Purges the cache for a single post, page, or taxonomy term.<br />
do_action(‘fastpixel/purge/url’, ‘https://example.com/my-landing-page/’); – Purges the cache for a specific URL.</p>
<p>For a detailed documentation about the hooks, please see this page: https://fastpixel.io/docs/fastpixel-hooks/</p>
