Not tested, but if you need a quick and dirty way, you could put a script like this in your WordPress folder and call it each time: define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false ); require(‘wp-blog-header.php’); global $wpdb; $wpdb->query( “DELETE FROM $wpdb->options WHERE option_name LIKE ‘%\_transient\_%'” ); Not to be used on a production server.
WordPress can be a resource hog if you don’t use caching. W3 Total Cache could help you a lot with MySQL, Object and Page Caching. You should also install PHP-APC and use it with the plugin. It can do wonders.
The reason is when you execute this code setcookie(‘wp-postpass_’ . COOKIEHASH, ”, 0, COOKIEPATH); It will reset your post password cookie to blank ”, so it just work once To solve this you need to assign the original cookie and extend the timeout, like this setcookie(‘wp-postpass_’ . COOKIEHASH, $_COOKIE[‘wp-postpass_’ . COOKIEHASH], time() + 60 * … Read more
Assuming you have shell access, or access to any Linux/Unix box, you could use wget to download the entire site to static html files: wget –recursive –no-clobber –page-requisites –html-extension –domains domain.com http://domain.com Then either upload or move these files to your web root (after backing up and removing your WP installation).

There are several ways to handle mobile devices and doing it inside of single theme is builky and hard to maintain (as for me at least). More commonly this seems to be accomplished with separate templates or separate mobile-specific theme. I don’t know about WP Super Cache specifics because I hadn’t used it extensively. Plugin … Read more

Identify page with switched stylesheet by query argument, disable caching of such pages. Identify page with switched stylesheet by URL endpoint, disable caching of such by … Read more

A typical nginx reverse proxy cache is set to ignore wp\-.*\.php|wp\-admin Another option is to not cache logged in users by checking the wp cookies, but you probably don’t have that level of control. ps.

I would recommend W3 Total Cache. It optimizes over several different aspects of the site (HTML, database, etc.) and I haven’t ran into any issues with it.
If you have access to your request header you can add the line. Cache-Control: private or Cache-Control: no-cache. This will force well-behaved hosts to send you fresh results.
Use this instead of the line in wich you define $days (your second line): $transient = get_transient( ‘your_transient_key’ ); if( !$transient ): $days = file_get_contents( ‘json_file’ ); set_transient( ‘your_transient_key’, $days, DAY_IN_SECONDS*7 ); else: $days = $transient; endif; $days = json_decode( $days ); … May be a bit rough but you get the idea.
