APCu Cache Manager

APCu Cache Manager provides a back-office interface for PrestaShop store owners to monitor and manage their APCu user cache. APCu is a PHP extension that caches database query results in memory, improving site performance when used alongside Zend OPcache. Without a management tool, there is no convenient way to inspect cache status or clear it when needed — this module solves that by surfacing APCu controls directly inside the PrestaShop admin panel.

• View current APCu memory usage and cache uptime from a clear back-office dashboard.
• Clear the APCu cache on demand without server-level access.
• See statistics that help you understand how effectively the cache is performing so you can tune it for best results.

This module requires the APCu PHP extension to be installed on the server. Store owners who are unsure whether APCu is available should check with their hosting provider. APCu must also be enabled within PrestaShop's Advanced Parameters > Performance section — the setting is labelled APC in the interface, though enabling it activates APCu. This module is a practical tool for technically minded merchants or developers who want better visibility into their PHP caching layer without leaving the back office.
