+===== Can I enable only certain IPs for testing? =====
-Yes you can and it is highly recommended to do so, especially on production servers. For instructions on how to enable this, have a look at our [[litespeed_wiki:cache:litemage:troubleshooting:debug?&#enable_litemage_for_only_certain_ips_for_testing_troubleshooting_purposes|Debugging LiteMage Cache]] page.
+Yes, you can. And doing so is highly recommended, especially on production servers. For instructions on how to enable this, have a look at our page about **[[litespeed_wiki:cache:litemage:troubleshooting:enable-for-certain-ips-only|this feature]]**.
-==== Is LiteMage free? ====
+===== How can all 404 pages be purged without purging the entire LiteMage cache? =====
+Navigate to the Magento Admin Panel => Cache Management screen. Go to "Flush LiteMage Cache By IDs", select the "CMS Page IDs" drop down, and put the 404 page ID in the input box. After that, click the "Flush LiteMage Cache By IDs" button.
+For most sites, that ID is 1. However, to be sure, this can be checked by going to Magento Admin Panel -> CMS -> Pages and find the page for "404 Not Found". Then click to go to the Edit screen. The URL will then show something similar to ".../cms_page/edit/page_id/1/key/..." with the page ID for this one being "1".
+As of version 1.3.4, the 404 pages caused by disabled product or category will carry related product/category IDs. So when the product/category is enabled, the related 404 pages will then be automatically purged as well.
-The free LiteMage module for LiteSpeed Web Server promotion has ended. The LiteMage module is now available as a purchasable add-on to new and existing LiteSpeed Licenses. The LiteMage Cache extension for Magento will remain free to download from [[http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/litemage-cache-2.html|Magento Connect]].
+===== How long are 404 pages cached for? =====
+pages are cached with the same public TTL as regular pages are.
-You can always try the ultra-fast LiteMage full page cache for free using our trial license. Overall, LiteSpeed + LiteMage will save you a ton on hardware costs while also achieving a high performance increase for your Magento store.
+===== How to order owned LiteMage license? =====
+You need to place an order for owned web server license, for example, a Web Host Professional Owned LSWS license. After you click "Order Now",  LiteMage will be available as an Add-On caching option during the ordering process.  Choose the right level of LiteMage package according to your need.

-==== How many publicly cached objects does a store use? ====
-LiteMage tiers are now based on publicly cached objects per domain. How do I know how many publicly cached objects an account/domain uses?
-It can be checked through LiteMage crawler in Magento Admin.
-Magento Admin-> System -> Cache Management -> LiteMage Crawler Warm-up Status -> List Size. If a store  has multiple currencies/Languages, you may need to add them up into total objects count.

-==== How to decide which license to choose? ====
-A merchant does not have a running store yet or I don't have the ability to check through merchant magento admin page. How I can estimate how many cached objects required for his store?
-There are only three tiers:Free/Standard/Large. You can guestimate based upon their stores size, number of languages, currencies and options. e.g. If you have 300 items for sale,and each has 2 configuration options that render different pages, in 10 languages...300X2X10=6000 so standard would be appropriate.
-==== New LiteMage tiers based on cached objects, what does it mean? ====
-Public cached objects are counted by url. So if you have a unique url that can be cached, then it is counted as 1 object.
-For example, layered navigation will have it's unique url, one category page with 10 different layered navigation will count as 11 objects. Also for view vary, like list view vs. grid view, also separate cached objects.
-Our trial license provide unlimited cached objects for LiteMage.
-==== What happen if required cached objects > license allowed objects ====
-For LiteMage Starter/Standard package, the good thing is: once the cache is filled with allowed objects, the site will be still working without any problem.
-So if over the limit, the page will be served by Magento directly, same as no cache. Litemage will only stop cache for new pages, but cached pages will be still served from cache. Your user will see some pages load faster, some slow. Overall, it is still much better than no cache.
-We will display the public cached objects count in Magento admin panel in future release.
