Wordpress LScache Plugin: Crawler cron ? miss and hits understanding
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hello, Im trying to learn OpenLiteSpeed and the Litespeed Cache. See printscreen: https://imgur.com/j0XU6iB As i cant find any manual with good details (or if i find something the plugin in that guide is out-dated v1), so Im going to ask it here. When I start the crawler manually run: I have 4 lines in the table. When finished the status is 4 hit and 66 miss for example. 1. What does this exactly mean? Does it mean the everything in the blue miss section is not cached? And everything in the green is cached ready when a visitor visit that page the cache is served by instant or..? 2. When I browse to the site and check the dev inspector network -> headers. I see hit in the headers. But Im not sure if its a real cache. As it takes still pretty long to load.(Chrome) In firefox, its like instant loaded if you refresh that page in chrome its not. Is it not like, click and the cached version is loaded? Or does it still have to render somethings even when its cached? Hi, 1, that blue means in that round , the page was not cached , but after crawler crawled it , it will be cached. green means , in this round , page is already cached before , no action will be taken 2, please check the TTFB on main request , main page and sub-resources are different thing , so it could be like page HTML code is there already , but waiting for CSS, JS , image ?etc to render page Best regards, Thanks, 1. Yes because, so when I manually start it. And only 4 pages are green and others are in the blue column. I need to try it again? Thats correct? I assume its normal that the first row for example is getting a reset and start all over again too? 1.a Do you have an example website with perfectly cached pages that I can check out? Will be helpful. 2. Im not sure if I understand you in full. Again Im trying to learn OLS and the cache plugin as it works differently than other plugins, but seems so far more powerful. Hi, 1. thats normal , that means some pages got purged , and only 4 pages has cached remains. 1a, well , you cant tell from frond-end , you can only see cache hit header from front. 2. just need to spend little time on it it should be pretty straightforward. Best regards, I am wondering too about the blue and green. And I found it wondrous that the documentation page about Litespeed Crawler Cron has no mentioning of cache hit nor cache miss . Would it be too much to ask that the documentation was updated and written in a way so that people that just installed the WordPress plugin could actually learn what the colored dots mean? https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/crawler/#crawler-cron
