What are the recommended cache expiration settings for different types of content?

Optimal cache expiration times vary by content type:

  • Static Resources (CSS, JS, images): 1 year
  • Dynamic Pages: 1-4 hours
  • API Responses: 5-15 minutes
  • User-specific Content: No caching or very short (1-5 minutes)

The Cache Enabler plugin allows fine-grained control over cache expiration. Consider:

  • Content update frequency
  • User interaction patterns
  • Server resources
  • Traffic patterns

Always test different settings to find the optimal balance between performance and content freshness.
