# Cache not clearing when importing data

 * This problem doesn’t always happen, but its very frustrating when it does. Here’s
   the scenario:
    1. We have a table that we use in many different ways on many different pages of
       our site.
    2. The info in the table is maintained outside of tablepress and so we load updates
       by importing a CSV
    3. We flush the WP Engine cache
    4. When logged into our site, we see the updated information when browsing our 
       site
    5. When not logged into our site (which is the case with all of our readers), the
       info is sometimes NOT updated. Flushing the WordPress cache again doesn’t help.
    6. We can force an update to a particular page by changing the filter even if its
       in a way that shouldn’t change the results of the filter (e.g. if we had this:[
       table id=10 show_columns=”23″ filter=”hello” /] we can change it to this to 
       force the new data to display: [table id=10 show_columns=”23″ filter=”hello&&
       hello” /]
    7. The problem with the above “fix” is that we display the same table on many different
       pages so its hard to go to all possible pages to fix it.

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for your post and sorry for the trouble!
 * This does indeed sound like an issue related to TablePress’ own output caching.
   This uses the WordPress Transients API, which apparently is running into issues
   here, maybe due to things like object caching.
 * It might therefore be worth a try to turn that off, by installing and activating
   the TablePress Extension from [https://tablepress.org/downloads/extensions/tablepress-turn-off-output-caching.zip](https://tablepress.org/downloads/extensions/tablepress-turn-off-output-caching.zip)
 * Regards,
   Tobias
