Cache not working with sticky posts

    We ran in to an issue where the cache_control_is_future_now_maxtime function was causing our homepage to generate Cache-Control: none header because the WP_Query call was returning stickied posts even though they have a post_status of published.

    I applied the following patch which fixed our issue.

    So you’re saying there is a bug in WordPress core then?

    I can’t ignore sticky posts as a sticky post also can be scheduled in the future.

    I’m having trouble reproducing this issue. I’ve tried setting an old published post as sticky, but it doesn’t affect the (WP_Query) $future_post as far as I can tell.

    Could you please send me a dump of your $future_post query without this patch? I’d like to have a closer look at it.

    ignore_sticky_posts will still return a sticky post, it just won’t move it to the top of the list.

    Exclude sticky posts from a category. Return ALL posts within the category, but don’t show sticky posts at the top. The ‘sticky posts’ will still show in their natural position (e.g. by date):
    $query = new WP_Query( 'ignore_sticky_posts=1&posts_per_page=3&cat=6' );

    Resolved in version 2.1.2.
