New add-on: Cache Buster
Permalink
Ever said to a client that they need to 'control+f5' their page? Then you probably know that browsers can cache JavaScript and CSS files to improve loading times. But in case you make a change to those files you don't want browsers to load those cached files of course.
Solution? Well, it's called a cache buster. By making a file name unique, a browser is forced to reload a file. Cache Buster does this by appending a timestamp to JavaScript and CSS assets.
You can choose which files should be cache busted, and which not. It automatically changes the timestamp 'suffix' when the cache is flushed, but you can also trigger it manually, by clicking on a button.
