    • Caching Control - Caching saves copies of your website’s content (like images and files) so pages load faster for your visitors.
      Turn the switch ON to activate caching. You can also choose which caching level option you prefer using.

      You can choose how much of your site gets cached. For example, “Assets Only” means only images and files are cached—not full pages. You can click the Learn about caching levels button to understand more about caching levels:
