This module clears the local browser cache once per unique visitor. It does so by send a Clear-Site-Data
response header with a value of "cache"
, and sets a cookie called BrowserCacheCleared
to prevent the header from being sent again.

This plugin requires Craft CMS 4.0.0 or later, or 5.0.0 or later.
Install this module via composer.

Once installed, the module self-bootstraps and does not require any further setup.
The module is configured to run only until a cut-off date, which is set to 2026-01-01
by default. After that date, the module will have no effect. This value can be overridden by setting a CLEAR_BROWSER_CACHE_CUTOFF_DATE
environment variable in your .env
file.
