Boost Cache Clear

This module helps clear specific Boost cache pages (delete particular static boost cache pages) on Drupal events - Node create, Node edit/update, Node delete, Node comment create, Node comment edit/update and Node comment delete.

Boost module cache the pages as static HTML files. When a new node is created, edited or deleted, the only way to refresh the node pages and the associated pages built using views would be to flush all cache. This module, Boost cache clear, allows us to clear specific page caches. The functionality can be enabled for specific content types, and for specific paths.
