Need help practicing the caged system (self.guitarlessons)

So i've been trying to learn the caged system recently, I think i had a semi decent grasp on how its used and how it works (open chord shapes + barring on diff sections can produce different notes).

My main issue is with learning how to practice it, I've been learning songs recently on UG but theyve so far only used open chords and some barre chords but i never get too deep into the neck and being able to utilize the system.

Apart from that i've also been struggling to memorize which chords are what, and if anyone has any charts that label what chord is playing using what shape it would be nice.

One thing that really helped me out was just taking a simple 1-4-5 chord progression and playing it up and down the neck in all the different positions.

I'll try doing that, thanks!
