This WordPress plugin only works on WPEngine, and allows you to target a particular URL with an HTTP cache PURGE request.

Description

This WordPress plugin only works on WPEngine, and allows you to target a particular URL with an HTTP cache PURGE request. The plugin was created in response to the non-200 response caching times for WP Engine being (at the time of writing) 24 hours. Mostly these caches are cleared automatically and as they should be, but occasionally there's a situation where this does not happen.

WARNING: This plugin really will not work on another service, it entirely depends on functionality uniquely provided by WPEngine within their service.

If you install the plugin on a host which is not WPEngine, it will post a whinging notice in all admin screens requesting you to turn it off.
