delay/discrepancies in edits using yahoo! smallbusiness hosting

  • Hi all,
    I use yahoo! small business for hosting, and I am just now attempting to implement wordpress via their (mostly) automated install. The problem is, there are delays and inconsistencies with the updates I am trying to make to the settings and theme. For example, I changed the title of the blog through the “options” menu, but it still appears as the default title sometimes, and as the new one other times. I have tried to make minor edits to various pages (add links, etc), but they only sometimes appear to show up, and take a while to get there.

    Is this normal? Do I need to ‘reset’ something to get it to work? Any ways to get around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Are you using caching? Try disabling it. I’m guessing it’s a caching issue. Check your plugins. Also, look in your wp-config.php and wp-settings.php for a line that says something like `

    define( ENABLE_CACHE, true );

    and get rid of it.

    It might be that Yahoo is imposing some caching on you, so you may need to complain to yahoo.

    Disabling the caching seems to fix it! What is the advantage of caching? Would it be worth re-enabling it once I finish changing the blog settings? Thanks!

    Caching can speed things up for high-traffic sites, but you probably don’t need to worry about it for a typical blog. If you start having performance issues, just turn it back on.
