Purgify – Transient Purge gives you a fast, accessible way to clear WordPress transients without leaving the screen you’re on.

Features

  • Admin Toolbar menu — clear transients from any admin screen or front-end (if logged in as admin) with one click.
  • Settings page (Tools Purgify) — dedicated page with both clear actions and documentation.
  • Result notice — after clearing, an admin notice tells you exactly how many transients were deleted, with an expandable list of every key that was removed.
  • Two clear modes:
    • Clear All — removes every transient regardless of expiry.
    • Clear Expired — removes only transients whose expiry time has passed (safe, routine cleanup).
  • Nonce-protected actions — all actions are protected against CSRF.
  • Translations ready — ships with translations for Spanish, French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), and Italian.
  • Lightweight — no external dependencies, no database tables, no options stored.

When should I clear transients?

  • After updating plugins or themes whose caches are stale.
  • When debugging unexpected cached content.
  • As routine maintenance to keep the options table clean (use Clear Expired).
  • After migrating or restoring a database.
