 * I installed this plugin after following this tutorial from DigitalOcean: [https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-setup-fastcgi-caching-with-nginx-on-your-vps](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-setup-fastcgi-caching-with-nginx-on-your-vps)
 * I would like to know if is that enough, or should i follow the tutorial from 
   RTcamp: [https://rtcamp.com/wordpress-nginx/tutorials/single-site/fastcgi-cache-with-purging/](https://rtcamp.com/wordpress-nginx/tutorials/single-site/fastcgi-cache-with-purging/)
 * ?
 * Thank you!

 * You won’t be able to use the plugin to purge your cache with that setup.

 * This Nginx (helper) plugin relies, like WP codex [Nginx fastcgi_cache](http://codex.wordpress.org/Nginx)
   recommandation btw, on the free 3rd party [**ngx_cache_purge**](https://github.com/FRiCKLE/ngx_cache_purge/)
   module and its fastcgi_cache_purge directive.
 * How can you claim this plugin’s purge method/feature does not work anymore, whatever
   your Nginx free version?
