A Fresher Cache

A Fresher Cache adds an admin bar menu that gives easy access to functions that refresh (i.e, regenerate or invalidate) cached items. Out of the box, the plugin provides easy access to refresh items that WordPress Core caches; however, the true power of the plugin is its API that allows developers to easily add items to the menu that initiate custom functions that refresh cached items. For instance, imagine that you wrote a function called “my_update_all_term_caches” that loops through all of the terms in your WordPress install and updates the cache for each item. You can add this function to the “Freshen” admin bar menu with the following API call: function my_update_all_term_caches_menu_item() { $args = array( 'id' => 'my-update-all-term-caches', 'title' => 'Update Term Cache', 'function' => 'my_update_all_term_caches' ); afc_add_item( $args ); } add_action( 'init', 'my_update_all_term_caches_menu_item' ); This code will generate a menu item labelled “Update Term Cache” that creates a link that will run the function defined in the “function” key of the $args array (in this case, my_update_all_term_caches()). The primary purpose of this plugin is to provide an easy tool for developers to refresh cached items when developing new features. Additionally, it can serve as a convenient tool for users to be able to update cached items when needed. Note that this is not merely a wrapper for the admin bar API. Rather, it allows you to add items to the admin bar and provides all of the necessary coding that will link a callback function to a menu item. You can think of it as an extension of the admin bar that adds a very specific functionality. The plugin also uses the admin bar as intended and only adds a few extra arguments that support the functionality of this plugin. A more complete tutorial that describes the full functionality of the plugin can be read at tollmanz.com.

GenTime

GenTime This plugin shows site administrators the time in seconds of how fast the page is generated in the WordPress top admin bar. The generation time is calculated from when the server receives the page request to when the number is printed, which is close to the end of the request. So, just PHP and the database impact this calculation. The time it takes to send the page from the server to your device is not included in this timer. That’s it, pretty simple!
