# Preload setting not working?

 * Hello, I have a newly built website with just about 3 pages.
 * I activated the “preload” setting for all content (homepage, pages, etc.)(everything
   is checked except “restart after completed”, I have set it on “8 pages per minute”.
 * I waited 4 days without visiting my own website just for testing, and I thought
   that the plugin would have created the cache for my 3 pages but it turns out 
   it did not happen. When I visited those 3 pages manually, the plugin message 
   at the end of the source code indicated that the cache version had been create
   this day, during my manual visit.
 * So the automatic preload feature seems to be broken, or am I doing something 
   wrong?
 * What I don’t understand is, on the following page, preload, which is said to 
   be generating cache page automatically and running automatically every 5 minutes:
   
   [https://www.wpfastestcache.com/features/preload-settings/](https://www.wpfastestcache.com/features/preload-settings/)
 * Is also said to be triggered by visits on the website on this page:
    [https://www.wpfastestcache.com/features/manually-preload-with-cron-jobs/](https://www.wpfastestcache.com/features/manually-preload-with-cron-jobs/)
 * So, is preload working on it own even on an inactive website (no visitor)? Will
   it cache all content automatically even in this case? Or does it need visitors
   to cache?
 * Thank you!
 * **UPDATE : I had automatic update deactivated in my wp-config file, so I removed
   the line and I deleted all cache, and plugin managed to cache all the pages automatically
   this times in about 2 minutes. I don’t know if the deactivation of automatic 
   update triggered the issue in wp fastest cache but at least, now it works!**
