How clear Joomla cache manually?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 7:42 am

Joomla cache is a powerful tool that can be used to improve the performance of your website. However, it can be difficult to clear the cache manually.

This is because the cache is located in different places on different websites. In this article, we will provide instructions on how to clear the cache on Joomla websites.

PRO TIP: Joomla caching can improve performance by storing data in memory so that it can be retrieved more quickly. However, if you make changes to your site content or configuration, you will need to clear the cache so that these changes can take effect. Failing to do so can result in old or outdated data being displayed on your site.

To clear the Joomla cache manually:

1. Log in to the Joomla backend as an administrator
2. Go to “System” -> “Clear Cache”
3. Click on the “Purge Cache” button

You should now see a confirmation message that the cache has been cleared.

To clear the cache on a Joomla website, first open the website in your browser. Next, click on the gear icon and select the settings tab. Under the “Cache” heading, click on the “Clear Cache” button.

This will remove all the cached files from the website. Finally, click on the “Close” button to return to the settings tab.

However, it is important to note that clearing the cache will not always improve the performance of the website. Sometimes, it is necessary to perform other optimizations, such as disabling plugins, to improve the performance of the website.
