But isn't damage already done since I already clicked empty cache? Should I completely reset my website? @tutrix

Everything seems fine and working, but the other guy says that's not enough @tutrix

If I see this correctly, you are using wpForo as a standalone, then a cache plugin makes no sense.

wpForo has a built-in cache system.

Ohh thanks. So my website is fine (aka i don't need to reset it) since I have a standalone cache for wpforo and the cache plugin doesn't affect it. Right?

No

If you have a standalone wpForo forum, a cache plugin makes no sense
You understand = no sense?
You don't need a cache plugin and shouldn't install one
All cache plugins don't work with wpForo

You have read this >> wpForo and Cache Plugins? <<

Yes, I understand that it makes no sense, I am not going to use it. What I meant to say, sorry, is should I reset my website and build it all back from scratch. Since, I stupidly clicked empty cache with the plugin before seeing the warning sign: "wpForo has a built-in cache system. It does dynamic cache of all forum pages, which will be affected by your cache plugin and the forum data will not be updated on the front-end."?

The reason why I posted here is wondering what should I do to mitigate the damage, if there is any? I uploaded to the forum and all the functions work, but the other guy said that's not good enough and you said exclude wpForo from W3 Total Cache(which I did, but that's after I clicked empty cache). 

Sorry, I am really new to this. What should I worry about/change, if I need to?

@stefenhawkings Just DISABLE and DELETE the W3TC plugin.

Nothing else is needed for you to do.
