beeVisible – Admin HTTP Cache

Description

beeVisible – Admin HTTP Cache monitors and caches external HTTP requests made by plugins in the WordPress admin area. Many plugins make repeated HTTP requests on every page load (update checks, license verification, API calls) which significantly slow down the backend.

Key Features:

  • Auto-Cache – Automatically enables caching for frequently requested domains (3+ requests)
  • Auto-Blacklist – Temporarily blocks faulty domains (403, 404, timeouts, server errors)
  • Request Monitoring – Overview of all HTTP requests made by plugins
  • Full Control – Manually enable/disable caching per domain
  • Configurable Cache Times – Set cache duration per domain (from 5 minutes to 24 hours)
  • Debug Mode – Detailed cache performance analysis with hit/miss tracking
  • Clean Uninstall – Removes all data when deleted

FAQ

Does this plugin work automatically?

Yes. Once activated, beeVisible – Admin HTTP Cache automatically monitors HTTP requests and enables caching for domains that are requested 3 or more times. No configuration required.

What happens when a domain returns errors?

Domains returning 403, 404, 500+ errors or timeouts are automatically blacklisted for 1 hour. After that, they are retested automatically. You can also manually unblock them.

Can I disable caching for specific domains?

Yes. In the HTTP Requests tab, you can disable caching for any domain. Explicitly disabled domains will not be re-enabled by Auto-Cache.

Does this affect the frontend?

No. beeVisible – Admin HTTP Cache only caches requests made in the WordPress admin area. Frontend requests are not affected.

What data is stored?

beeVisible – Admin HTTP Cache stores request statistics, cache settings, and cached HTTP responses as WordPress transients. All data is removed when the plugin is deleted.
