View source for Maintenance: Clear Cache/fr

<noinclude><languages /></noinclude>
==Description== 
Clears cache files from the cache folders if enabled under the  [[Help40:Site_Global_Configuration/en#Cache_Settings|Site Global Configuration]] settings.

Cache files are temporary files that are created to improve the performance of your site. If you have made significant changes to your web site, such as changing your Template or Language, your cache files may be out of date. To avoid any problems caused by out of date cache files, you can delete all of the cache files.
After deletion of ''all'' Cache files the website may be a little slower until the cache files are re-created with use.

==How to Access== 
* Select {{rarr|System,Maintenance Panel,Clear Cache}} from the Administrator menu.

* '''Search by Text.''' Enter part of the search term and click the Search icon. The search may be of one or more fields. ''Hover'' to see a ''Tooltip'' indicating which fields will be searched.

* '''Filter Options.''' Click to display or hide the additional filters.
*'''Clear.''' Click to clear the Filter field and restore the list to its unfiltered state.
*'''Ordering.''' Shows the current table ordering field. Select from the drop down list to change the order or click a column heading. Ordering may be in ascending or descending order. The column heading toggles between ascending and descending order.
*'''Number to Display.''' Shows the number of items in a list. The default for a site is 20 but this may be changed in the global configuration. Select from the drop-down list to change the number displayed. If you select too many complex items they will be slow to deliver and display.
