Does checking Woo boxes suppose to create URI lines?

  • This is driving me crazy. I have this plugin, version 4.5.8 on two sites. Upon installation one site has checkout and cart lines in the URI box, while the other one doesn’t and both have all of the Woocommerce boxes checked. Does checking the Woocommerce boxes supposed to create cart and checkout lines in the URI? And, if so, any idea why it doesn’t do that on one site?

    Hi,
    Checkout and Cart pages are always supposed to be bypassed from Caching. But when you say it is in the URI lines, it is not much clear what exactly you are trying to say. Can you please share a screenshot so that I can understand exactly what you are talking about?

    On this option: Prevent the following URIs to be cached which is the ONLY option that says URIs on it so how you don’t know what I’m talking about seems literally impossible, it has these two lines:

    /checkout/*
    /cart/*

    Should it have those? Because one site has them and one site doesn’t. If I delete the plugin from each site, check database, all wp_options removed, then reinstall the same exact plugin on both sites, one site has the /checkout/* /cart/* in the “Prevent the following URIs to be cached” upon installation and one doesn’t have them. I don’t even know how it’s possible. Version 4.5.8 of the plugin. Should it have these two lines upon initial installation of the plugin or no?

    Hi,
    even if they are there, you can either choose to keep them there or remove them as it will not make any changes. The reason behind this is if your site doesn’t have the checkout and cart pages then those won’t be bypassed.

    Alternatively, if you delete these two rules but if you are using WooCommece under the Third Party Tab you can also select which pages you want to bypass cache for: https://i.imgur.com/ACk87qK.jpeg

    So, either way it is not a problem.

    upon installation and one doesn’t have them

    – This really seems wired. As we do not add these 2 lines in the prevent list anymore by default (we used to). You can try deactivating and then deleting the plugin from the wp admin plugin page and then make sure you purged any cache you have at the server level, like opcache or object cache etc. Then make a fresh install of the plugin. Hoipefully they won’t get auto added then. But again as I explained, it really doesn’t matter. It’s basically like a list of URL path expression telling the plugin what to bypass cache for.
