Caching and cache breaking

When caching is enabled (cacheEnabled configuration setting set to true) transformed images are cached for the duration of the cacheDuration configuration setting. If an image file is replaced, the existing transforms will be deleted. If a file is moved, the transforms will also be regenerated, since Imager will not find the transforms in the new location.

It is possible to manually remove the generated transforms by going to Settings > Clear Caches, selecting "Imager image transform cache" and clicking "Clear!". You can also select the images you want to clear in the Assets element list, and choose "Clear Imager transforms" from the element action dropdown menu.

When transforming a remote image, the image will be downloaded and cached for the duration of the cacheDurationRemoteFiles configuration setting. You can manually remove the cached remote images by going to Settings > Clear Caches, selecting "Imager remote images cache" and clicking "Clear!".
