Cache Autopilot
Targeted cache refresh for WordPress
Stop clearing your entire WordPress cache just because one thing changed. Cache Autopilot is a WordPress plugin that automatically finds and refreshes the affected pages through your existing cache plugin — so clients can publish without ever thinking about cache. Free: Gutenberg, WooCommerce, forms + more. PRO: Elementor, ACF relationships, multilingual + more.
I’m a Swiss WordPress developer, and I built Cache Autopilot after running into the same problem on real sites again and again:
The problem
Something changes in WordPress, but cached pages affected by that change don’t always refresh with it.
Think Elementor Components reused across pages, posts appearing in Query Loops on non-archive pages, synced patterns, embedded forms, widgets, options or custom fields affecting content elsewhere on the site.
The usual safe fallback was to manually clear the entire cache. I wanted that to happen automatically — and only as broadly as necessary.
How Cache Autopilot helps
Cache Autopilot works alongside your existing cache plugin:
Change → find affected pages → purge those URLs → preload them in the background.
That matters especially after handover: clients can publish normally without having to know when the cache needs attention.
What started as a solution for my own block-theme sites grew into support for Elementor, WooCommerce, form plugins, ACF relationships, multilingual sites and custom WordPress setups.
It’s been running on production sites since April, and the Free version is now on WordPress.org.
There’s genuine satisfaction in watching the log after a change.
It currently works with LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, FlyingPress, Cache Enabler and Breeze. WP Fastest Cache support is already prepared, pending its new exact-URL purge support.
I’d love to hear where Cache Autopilot would help — or still fall short — on real WordPress sites.

Who hunted Cache Autopilot?
Cache Autopilot was hunted by Beat Schenkel. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
