 * Hello All,
 * I was wondering if someone can explain what preview mode does?
 * Normally if I change W3TC settings, I clear the cache then log out or look at
   the site using another browser and see how the changes affect the page.
 * Does Preview Mode eliminate the need to clear the text and view the pages when
   you are not logged in, because it shows you an example of the cached page when
   you are logged in?
 * Thanks,
    Craig
