Fragment Cache not working

So if i understand you correctly minify needs to be activated and then add mfunc and mclude in “Ignored comment stems:” textbox.

Since i had minify turned off, that will never work?

Ill try it tonight and will get back to u if it failed.

Thanks so far for the quick response

–edit–

I just checked your document and it states the below

The last thing that needs to be done depends on whether the Minify setting is enabled or not. If Minify setting is indeed enabled, we need to goto Performance> Minify and scroll down to HTML & XML sub-box. There we need to add mfunc and mclude in “Ignored comment stems:” textbox.This concludes the part where we play with the W3 Total Cache settings and now we go to a more interesting part.

I only have page caching and Fragment cache activated.

I’m also gonna try with minify enabled, ill keep this post updated.

i tried without php tags

echo date(‘Y-m-d H:i:sa’);

On page load it shows the time but as soon as u refresh by using F5 it returns

echo date(‘Y-m-d H:i:sa’);

so it looks like the cached version isn’t refreshing that data

Ok the only thing i had differently was that i was using Redis instead of Disc.

And these are the results i’m getting,

When i use the code below in my header.php

<!-- mfunc Donotcachethis -->
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:sa');
<!-- /mfunc Donotcachethis -->
<?php echo date('Y-m-d H:i:sa'); ?>

and in wp-config.php

define('W3TC_DYNAMIC_SECURITY', 'Donotcachethis');

then i flush all cache and open a page and it shows me the below results.

2020-04-07 11:43:35am 2020-04-07 11:43:30am

So both codes are executed, then when i press F5 the expected behavior should be that the first “time” get’s updated as it is dynamic content and the second time should stay the same as it should be cached. now the results i get back after pressing F5 to refresh the browser.

echo date(‘Y-m-d H:i:sa’); 2020-04-07 11:43:30am

Let me also mention that i tried the behavior with caching on and off for the setting below. The above result is to also cache pages with logged in users.

Don’t cache pages for logged in users

When i turn cache off for Logged in users both times get updated all the time so nothing is cached.

I’m kinda shooting in the dark now since i used the settings as proposed but i’m not getting what i want as shown above.

Hopefully u might have an idea on how i can troubleshoot this any further and if it’s even possible to achieve what i’m trying todo.

Thanks for the help so far tho.

Hello Marko,

My issue isn’t resolved so it’s a bit weird u put it on resolved.

This is how i stand in this;

I tried your free plugin, which is ok.
I found out i need to exclude some things in the header.php and your program litterly told me i could do that if i bought the upgrade to pro. so i did.

The settings u said i need to get the solution i want don’t work for me….
So now your telling me i bought a pro version and get zero support concerning my issue.

So what did u guys achieve by working like this is;
1. I bought somthing i don’t need, so ill try to refund it and dispute it with the credit card company.
2. U will get a BAD review
3. Even if i can’t get a refund, since i see more bad messages about your company with situations like this, i will sure not extend the license…..

At the end, u guys could have had a very simple satisfied customer that would have paid a renewal every year….

It’s a very bad thing to let customers who paid for extra functionality that does not work out of the box offer extra paid services……

Hereby i would not suggest anyone who needs more then an out of the box configuration to use your plugin unless they are prepared to pay u guys for the configuration.

So as of now i’m gonna tell my client to stop with u guys….

I always said Fragment cache, and sorry for the fact i posted my problem here and not from inside the plugin, inside the plugin it looks like u only want to sell more configuration hours which i don’t want….

I created a workarround now with ajax to update the elements in cached versions which somehow works. I would have preferred a solution within W3 total cache but since i as a user walked this way and get to this solution says a lot about your support options…… (u might wanna think about that, since i probably won’t be the only 1)

I will reply to the license email and will only put a link to this post in it so u guys can contact me if u wanna solve it or not. for me i’m at a point now that i don’t rlly care anymore if u guys wanna solve it or not.
So if u guys wanna solve it u can contact me by replying to that email.

I receved your email and just replied, sorry for my frustrated reaction i guess.
