Congratulations on installing Poper on your WordPress website! To guarantee that Poper functions optimally, it's crucial to clear your website's cache after the installation process. Here's a quick guide to help you with this step:

Understanding Caching

Caching is a performance optimization technique that stores website data temporarily. This allows pages to load faster for returning visitors.

However, after installing a new plugin like Poper, the cached data might become outdated and cause conflicts. Clearing the cache ensures Poper's scripts and styles load properly.

Clearing the Cache

Access Your Caching Plugin: Locate the caching plugin you're currently using on your WordPress website. Common caching plugins include WP Rocket, WP Super Cache, and W3 Total Cache.

Purge the Cache: Within your caching plugin's settings, find the option to clear the cache. This might be labeled as "Purge Cache," "Empty Cache," or something similar. Click on this button to initiate the cache clearing process.

Optional: Excluding Poper.js (Recommended)

Ideally, you'd want to exclude the Poper JavaScript file (poper.js) from being cached altogether. This ensures Poper always loads the latest version of its scripts and avoids potential conflicts with cached data.
