no, sorry. Sometimes, users believe that pages continue to be served from the cache even after deactivating WP Fastest Cache. Therefor, we need to do it.

Unfortunately, I do not agree with your approach or philosophy.
The best way to address both my finding and your concern is to add a new Settings box, labeled “Complete Uninstall” (details).
The above agrees with the philosophy followed by many other high-quality plugin developers. Further, why would you support users who want to delete/stop using your plugin over those who find it beneficial?
Thank you.
I do not add such an option.
No need to add the option, but honestly, cache / cache files should be deleted ONLY if the plugin is deleted (not when simply deactivated). Other, popular cache plugins behave this way.
Hey Emre,
If you don’t mind me asking, please update your plugin code to ensure it does not delete cached files when your plugin is deactivated/reactivated? (only when your plugin is deleted)
Benefits:
- Cache is not lost when it’s necessary to deactivate plugins (including yours) for site testing or troubleshooting purposes.
- UX is not deteriorated.
- Eliminates long cache build-up times (especially when not using a CDN or using a sub-bar host).
- Your 1M+ customers will thank you 🙂
