   Hi
   Will this plugin work with dynamic content (like random images, random posts)?
   Of course it is a contradiction between dynamic content and caching. I've skipped WP Super cache because it is said to "freeze" the displayed content. (Nothing bad said about that plugin, there is a reason why it is so popular :o)
   Thanks,
   Kjetil

   There are hooks to allow WP Super Cache to not cache static components in your theme. W3TC on the other hand will cache the output of WP, to make your site more dynamic you can either:

   • use javascript
   • lower the expiry time of your pages
   • exclude some pages from being cached entirely

   Thanks Frederick - could you tell me if your plugin deletes the cache on updating of a post, or submission of a new comment?

   many thanks.

   Yes, all of the events that modify posts (creation, editing, comments etc) all invalidate the cache.
