Cache Management

Cache Management allows the Admin to clear and rebuild various system caches to ensure that both the storefront and admin panel display the most up-to-date information while maintaining optimal performance.

To manage cache settings, go to the Admin Panel and navigate to Configure > General > Cache Management.

Cache Actions

The Cache Management section provides options to clear and rebuild different types of caches.

Clear Cache Options

Use these actions to remove cached data and force the application to regenerate it on the next request.

• Clear All Cache – Clears all available caches.
• Clear Config Cache – Removes cached configuration data.
• Clear Application Cache – Clears the application cache.
• Clear Compiled Cache – Removes compiled classes and files.
• Clear Event Cache – Clears cached event discovery data.
• Clear Route Cache – Removes cached route definitions.
• Clear View Cache – Clears compiled Blade view files.

Build Cache Options

Use these actions to pre-build caches and improve application performance.

• Rebuild All Cache – Rebuilds all supported caches.
• Cache Config – Generates configuration cache.
• Cache Routes – Generates route cache.
• Cache Views – Compiles and caches view files.

How to Execute Cache Actions

Step 1: Navigate to Configure > General > Cache Management.

Step 2: Click the desired cache action button under either Clear Cache or Build Cache.

Step 3: Review the execution results in the Output Console section.

Step 4: A success message and console output will be displayed once the operation is completed successfully.

Important Notes

• Route caching will fail if any route file uses closures instead of controller references.
• Configuration caching will fail if any configuration file returns closures.
• File permission issues may prevent cache generation or cache clearing operations.

⚠️ Note: After clearing cache, the first few page loads may take slightly longer because the application needs to regenerate cached data. Rebuilding caches after deployment is recommended for better performance.
