Main Page Doesn’t Update When Publish a Page or Post

When you update the post the plugin automatically purge the post page along with related post pages. Can you make sure page caching is disabled in WP Rocket?

Can you also make sure this option is enabled under the third party tab for WP Rocket: https://i.imgur.com/2hybcvT.png

If you still face the problem, enable the “Log Mode” and under the other tab, set log verbosity to high. Then after you update a post check the log where you can see all the URLs the plugin is purging.

Hi! Thanks for the quick reply. WP Rocket has no option to disable it. So, as you said, I have already disabled WP rocket from the third part tab.

The fallback cache is on, and I do see the advanced-cache file generated by the plugin (after I disable WP rocket). I’ll be looking in the logs for now.

ok. Keep me posted about what you find.

Hi!
So, here’s the update.
When I post a new post, the post appears automatically on the other associated pages except for the homepage.
In the logs the post with the ID also trigger purge cache multiple times, but I’m not able to understand what it is all about. Here’s the part:

The same thing is created multiple times.
When I bypass CF super cache, the post does show on the front page.

Let me know if you need more information from the log file

Hey,
Can you download this build of the plugin and see if it works or not?

• This reply was modified 3 years, 3 months ago by iSaumya. Reason: Updated build download URL

Sure, let me check.

Okay, so this time, I have also disabled WP rocket completely. Installed the plugin which you sent. And I’m using the default plugin settings (even though I have Varnish, Redis Object cache, and OPcache running).

Still, the homepage was not updated automatically. Here’s the log generated:

even though I have Varnish, Redis Object cache, and OPcache running

– If you are using varnish, have you added the varnish port details to the plugin settings to ensure that the varnish cache also gets cleared?

Also can you add the line define('SWCFPC_HOME_PAGE_SHOWS_POSTS', true); to your WP Config and see that works?

I use CLoudways Varnish and see that the plugin has the option of it as well. Will I still have to set the port as well (not the default ones) to use Varnish. Previously, I had the options for OPcache, Varnish, and Redis Cache purge cache turned on, and still, it wouldn’t work.

Have you added define('SWCFPC_HOME_PAGE_SHOWS_POSTS', true); to wp-config.php and then checked?

Yes.

added in wp-config.php
Still no success.
This is the homepage.
I just wrote a post that should have been shown in the Latest News section but is not showing.

Hmm… Can you set the Log Verbosity to High in the plugin settings Others tab. After that update a Post and check the log. Then you will be able to see the list of URLs it is purging on the post update. Share that log here and check if the home page URL is in that list.

Sure.

So, here’s the log, it does has the post ID in it which I recently published/updated. But I don’t see the homepage URL in it.
