Cache + CDN – How to edit correctly

    HI,

    My WP install has Autoptimize + WP Super Cache + CDN (Cloudfront).

    I frequently make changes of the following nature:
    (a) design changes (CSS)
    (b) WP code changes (PHP)
    (c) HTML code changes, how to ensure it

    Since the CSS, JS is minified, then cached, then cached by CDN, my guess is after every changes, I need to:
    (1) Delete Autoptimize cache
    (2) Delete WP Super Cache
    (3) Delete objects from Cloudfront

    Is this correct?

    Q1: What is the correct way to make incremental changes when trying something new.
    Q2: Once the changes are approved, what should be my sequential to refresh all caches and ensure the whole world sees the changes in the first go.

    I’m confused on the order and step required.

    Pls help.

    Thanks

    Afternoon Sanjay;
    In general (2) should suffice; if the page is removed from cache AO will “see” different CSS/ JS and will create new files (with a different name). Deleting AO cache (& Cloudfront stored AO-files) should only be needed if you end up with a too big a cache.

    Hope this clarifies,

    So -> (2) Delete WP Super Cache -> should be done.
    Great!
