 * Hi
 * We are testing out your plugin and so far impressed. However, we noticed an issue
   with it caching the “Latest posts” WordPress block.
 * For example, it’s caching the sidebar which is showing the latest posts using
   this block. And also if you go onto a post for example [https://computersluggish.com/windows-tutorials/gaming/how-to-show-fps-counter-in-pc-games/](https://computersluggish.com/windows-tutorials/gaming/how-to-show-fps-counter-in-pc-games/),
   then we have the latest posts at the bottom. Both of these are not being updated
   with the most recent posts that have been published.
 * Can you exclude the latest posts block from being cached to avoid this problem?
   Thanks

 * Hi [@computersluggish](https://wordpress.org/support/users/computersluggish/),
   
   I think you misunderstood how page caching plugin works. Page Caching means it
   is caching the entire page. There is no way to cache/bypass specific section 
   of the page. So, for example if you want to update the latest guides section 
   at the end of the post, you have to purge the whole page from cache. There is
   no way to tell the system that cache the entire page but don’t cache this specific
   widget or block. It either cached the entire page or it does not.
 * If you wish to show dynamic data in cached pages then those contents needs to
   be loaded asynchronously over JavaScript. So, first the page loads with all the
   cached content and then the JavaScript makes async calls to fetch the latest 
   articles and then it shows the latest articles. In this way, you will always 
   see the latest articles as those data is not mart of the HTML content and instead
   fetched asynchronously using JavaScript.

 * Hi Saumya, thanks for the response. I did think that may be the case but it’s
   always worth checking. No worries, we will look into our options. Thanks
