Cache Management

Magento’s cache management system is an easy way to improve the performance of your site. Whenever a cache needs to be refreshed, a notice appears at the top of the workspace to guide you through the process. Follow the link to Cache Management, and refresh the invalid caches.

To access the cache management screen, you can also use the link in the admin panel menu: System > Cache Management.

Always refresh the cache after making changes in the configuration of your Magento/themes/extensions or after making any custom changes in the files.
