 * Hello –
 * When updating a post I get the fatal error below. I looked into [https://techjourney.net/fix-wordpress-w3-total-cache-w3tc-uncaught-exception-unknown-engine-500-fatal-error/](https://techjourney.net/fix-wordpress-w3-total-cache-w3tc-uncaught-exception-unknown-engine-500-fatal-error/)
   but, unfortunately, couldn’t find the file /w3tc-config/master.php file.

 * Hey [@mamil](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mamil/),
 * There are a couple of things you can do:
 * 1) If you are using Cloudflare, you can modify the following:
 * You can edit:
    /www/wp-content/w3tc-config/master.php
 * “cdnfsd.enabled”: “0”,
    “cdnfsd.engine”: “CloudFlare”, “cdnfsd.debug”: “0”,
 * 2) Reset the default setting of the plugin and select all the options again.
 * 3) try to modify the Cdnfsd_CachFlush.php as indicated in a previous post ([Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Exception’ with message ‘unknown engine](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-2749/))

 * Just saving settings again should fix the issue if you updated the plugin to 
   version 0.9.7.

 * Yes, I confirm the issue was fixed with the update of the plugin to version 0.9.7.
