What's new

JCH Optimize will delete cache files when they have expired. Sometimes, if you're using another page cache plugin then it's possible that a cached page can be loaded with links to orphaned files, leaving the site without CSS and JavaScript. To mitigate this we recommend setting the cache lifetime in JCH Optimize much higher than your page cache lifetime. However, in this version we've added a setting to disable to deletion of cache files to avoid this altogether. You may just have to watch if you're building up an excess amount of cache. Better still, we recommend using the JCH Optimize Page Cache plugin and keep cache expiry deletion enabled. You'll also benefit from the HTTP Request feature that serves cached pages without calling PHP, significantly reducing initial server response. A few bug fixes since the last stable release is also included. Please see CHANGELOG for details.

Developed and tested on up to PHP 8.1.13 and Joomla! 3.10.11|4.2.5
