IndiaTVDNA Turbo Cache Lite

Description

IndiaTVDNA Turbo Cache Lite is a standalone free performance plugin. Free functionality is real and usable; advanced Full modules are not hidden behind locked switches in the Lite ZIP.

Free working features:
* Anonymous page cache with dynamic-session bypasses.
* Automatic cache invalidation and manual purge.
* GZIP pre-compressed cached HTML when supported by the server.
* Conservative HTML cleanup.
* Conservative CSS Minify using generated cache copies; original files are never edited.
* Local @font-face font-display: swap in generated CSS copies.
* Image and iframe lazy loading through WordPress core lazy-loading APIs.
* Basic Auto Optimize, manual preload, Performance Doctor and cache self-test.
* Manual expired-transient cleanup.
* Basic Cloudflare integration: token verification, zone detection, manual purge and optional content-change auto purge.
* User-configured CDN URL Delivery for eligible wp-content/wp-includes assets.
* Local Smart Intelligence that inspects the current theme/plugin stack for common optimizer conflicts without sending site data to an AI service.
* Live cache count/size and generated asset statistics.

Full-version preview cards explain advanced functionality and show estimated potential performance ranges. Those ranges are informational estimates, not guarantees. Results depend on hosting, theme, plugins, media, visitor location, cacheability and existing optimization.

The separate IndiaTVDNA Turbo Cache Full package adds advanced functionality such as early advanced-cache.php delivery, stale/stampede protection, AVIF/WebP background conversion, Redis/Memcached auto discovery, adaptive smart preload, advanced Cloudflare Full-Page Edge Cache rule management, advanced asset exclusions/warm/rebuild controls, rollback/self-healing and deeper diagnostics.

External services

IndiaTVDNA Turbo Cache Lite does not automatically send site or visitor data to IndiaTVDNA.

Cloudflare

Cloudflare integration is optional and OFF by default. It is used only when an administrator explicitly configures/uses the Cloudflare controls. The plugin may send authenticated requests to Cloudflare’s API to verify the configured Cloudflare credential, find the zone for the current site and purge Cloudflare cache. These requests include the credential and site/zone information needed for the requested operation. When the administrator chooses legacy Global API Key authentication, the matching Cloudflare account email is also sent because Cloudflare requires it for that legacy authentication method.

User-configured CDN

CDN URL Delivery is optional and OFF by default. The plugin does not choose or create a CDN provider. If an administrator enters a CDN hostname and enables delivery, eligible static asset URLs are rewritten to that hostname. Visitors’ browsers may then send normal web requests (such as IP address, user agent and requested asset URL) to the administrator-selected CDN provider. Review the privacy policy and terms of the CDN provider you choose.

IndiaTVDNA website links

The admin interface contains optional Full-version links to https://indiatvdna.com/. Data is sent to that website only when an administrator chooses to follow a link, according to the website’s own terms and privacy policy.

The plugin also adds suggested text to WordPress’s Privacy Policy Guide for the optional Cloudflare/CDN features.

  3. Open Turbo Cache in wp-admin.

FAQ

Is this a time-limited trial?

No. Lite functionality is not time-limited.

Are Full features hidden inside the Lite ZIP?

No. Advanced Full-only engines are not shipped as unlockable premium modules in Lite.

Does Smart Intelligence send my site to an AI service?

No. Lite Smart Intelligence is a deterministic local theme/plugin compatibility scan.

Does Cloudflare run automatically after activation?

No. Cloudflare is OFF by default and requires administrator configuration/action.

Does CDN URL Delivery choose a CDN provider for me?

No. You provide your own CDN hostname and are responsible for that provider’s configuration, privacy policy and terms.

Does Lite cache logged-in users or WooCommerce carts?

No. Those requests are bypassed by design.
