 * Hey,
    when I purge a category page (Woo) instead of original link e.g. “product-
   category/uhod-telo” gets generarted an alternative “product-category/uhod-telo/?
   w3tc_note=pgcache_purge_post”
 * What is a reason? Is a setting “purge current page” doesnt work for category 
   pages?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flink-name-changes%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@diamantweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/diamantweb/)
 * Thank you for your iqnuiry and I am happy to assist you with this.
    This happens
   because of the Referrer-Policy header set in Performance>Browser Cache>Seurity
   Headers. If the directive is set to “no-referrer-when-downgrade” you should change
   it to “same-origin”, save all settings and purge the cache. Thanks!

 * Hi Marko,
    Thx for your reply. I changed a setting as you guided + purge cache.
   Nothing changed on front, still additional “w3tc_note=pgcache_purge_post” appears

 * Hello [@diamantweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/diamantweb/)
 * Thank you for the information.
    Ah, yes “w3tc_note=pgcache_purge_post” remains
   as its showing that the specific post is purged. This happens only when logged
   in so the string is not showing for non logged in users. Changing the referrer-
   policy directive to “same-origin” will not redirect you to the dashboard but 
   you will remain on the post that is purged. Thanks!

 * Hi Marko,
    So how I should proceed here? Seems like when I click purge current
   page (category page is meant e.g.) the “w3tc_note=pgcache_purge_post” appears
   and as a result the original category link doesnt get parged. Being unlogged (
   in privat mode e.g) I go to the parged category page and still see the page in
   a status as it was not parged, still old product price is shown. To undestand
   better pls have a look at the first product from the catalog. Link on the category
   page is the first message

 * Hello [@diamantweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/diamantweb/)
 * Thank you for the info.
    Does the issue persist if you purge all cache? Thanks!

 * Hi Marko,
    No, when I “purge all”, all pages are purged but “purge current page”
   doent work for category page

 * Hello [@diamantweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/diamantweb/)
 * Thank you for the information. I am sorry about the confusion and misunderstanding.
   
   You are correct, the Purge current page won’t work in this case. “Purge current
   page” only clear cache for the post ID which is not the case with category pages.
   You can do it programmatically and call `w3tc_flush_url($url)` on those posts
   Thanks!
