Admin 'caching'? problem

    Hi. Hoping someone can help.

    I have a problem with the Admin area not refreshing. If I add a ‘New Page’ and Publish, when I return to view ‘All Pages’ the new page does not appear on the list. If I reload/refresh my browser, it appears on the list of pages.

    Similarly, if I disable a plug-in – I receive the notification that it has been disabled, but it still appears active on the list of plug-ins until I reload/refresh the plug-ins page.

    If I edit a page and don’t hit reload/refresh before making changes, it will actually replace the permalink of the last page I worked on (it’s like the editor was cached). I don’t have any caching plug-ins installed.

    I thought it was theme related, but I have replicated the issue on 3 brand new WordPress installs (with no theme change or plugins activated). I have installed WordPress using Installatron, Softaculous and manual/ftp.

    I have tried using Chrome and Internet Explorer.

    My (shared) hosting company can replicate the problem – but are adamant that the problem is not server related.

    I have about 15 other domains on my shared hosting/reseller account – WordPress works perfectly on all of them – no issues at all.

    I have tried PHP version 5.6 and 7.0. PHP values: memory_limit 128M, upload_max_filesize: 32M.

    Thanks for your help. Let me know if I can provide any further information.

    sounds like cache issue.

    try flushing any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server and/or browser caches. Also, any op cache or content network cache, as well as Cloudflare, clear those caches.

    Thanks Tara

    I have now resolved the problem.

    I “inherited” this website from another developer. After a lot of searching I discovered the following lines had been added to the .htaccess file for some unknown reason. Removing these lines and clearing my browser cache fixed the problem!

    Header set Cache-Control “max-age=604800, public”
    Header unset Pragma

    Thanks again
    Tim
