 * Hello,
 * I would like to ask if it is possible to auto clean the site so I don’t have 
   to click delete cached every time I wanted to.
 * I would like to have a cleaning automation that I can set as daily, weekly or
   monthly, is that possible?
 * If you have it on a pro version will also do.
    Looking forward with your future
   response. Thank you…
 * Cheers

 * Hey Ivan;
    As per [the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/#faq);
 * >  Autoptimize does not have its proper cache purging mechanism, as this could
   > remove optimized CSS/JS which is still referred to in other caches, which would
   > break your site. Moreover a fast growing cache is an indication of [other problems you should avoid](http://blog.futtta.be/2016/09/15/autoptimize-cache-size-the-canary-in-the-coal-mine/).
   > Instead you can keep the cache size at an acceptable level by either:
   > * disactivating the “aggregate inline JS” and/ or “aggregate inline CSS” options
   > *
   > excluding JS-variables (or sometimes CSS-selectors) that change on a per page(
   > or per pageload) basis. You can read how you can do that in this blogpost.
   > Despite above objections, there are 3rd party solutions to automatically purge
   > the AO cache, e.g. using [this code](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contribution-autoptimize-cache-size-under-control-by-schedule-auto-cache-purge/)
   > or [this plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/bi-clean-cache/), but for reasons
   > above these are to be used only if you really know what you’re doing.
 * hope this clarifies,
    frank
