Caching Problem

    I cannot seem to make changes to announcements. Deleting, Editing, Adding, nothing. It seems to be holding onto that cached version.

    However… If I add two timelines, like this:

    [timeline-express single-column=”1″ order=”DESC”]
    [timeline-express single-column=”1″ order=”DESC”]

    … then the second timeline reflects all of my latest changes, just as I expect. The first is the old cached version.

    I’ve tried clearing cache, hard refresh, saving announcements, pages, posts, plugins… everything short of editing the code. I was looking into that, but hopefully, there’s an easier solution that I’m overlooking.

    Thanks

    The timeline cache is cleared any time the settings page, announcement or page containing the shortcode is saved or updated.

    If you are using any other sort of caching, object caching etc. that is storing cache in another manner outside of the default transients that our plugin creates the cache my not be cleared properly.

    You can test by enabling WP_DEBUG in your wp-config.php file to disable any sort of caching inside Timeline Express.

    Thanks for the quick reply. Really strange that only the second timeline shows correctly, no?

    Forgive me, I’ve been using WordPress for less than a week. I’m using a WordPress hosted site. Is it possible for me to edit my wp-config.php file on a WordPress hosted site?

    It makes sense since the cache is setup sequentially. Each timeline has it’s own set of cache, so generating one timeline would have one set of cache – whereas the second would contain the new cache.

    At the very least the cache should be cleared when the settings are saved – even if nothing is updated.

    We can do some testing to see if we can replicate the issue. If something is not working properly, we can certainly fix things.

    Thank you for the help. I just decided to create a new page, deleting the old page which was cache-stuck. So, problem resolved.

    We’ll do some testing and report back here with some of our findings.
