No Cache Cookie being set

Hi,
You just caught me at shutdown for the evening….

Pricing Deals does not have cookie functions of any kind.

It sounds more likely that you’re experiencing a module conflict.

Suggest a *full module conflict test*:

To track down a module conflict, please follow these steps ** PRECISELY **:
(1) Install and activate a maintenance mode plugin (if desired)
(2) Then, DO ALL (*at the same time*):
(-) do a full site backup!
(-) deactivate ***all*** plugins except Woo, my plugin (and maintenance mode plugin)
(-) ** switch to a clean default theme like “twentynineteen” **
— (This removes all other possible conflicts.)
(-) turn off all deals except the one we are examining.

(3) ** close your browser completely, retest in a fresh, clean browser session **
(4) if good, add 1 module back in. ** Retest **
(5) Repeat until conflict identified.

** This test depends on following the outlined steps fully. **

Best,
Vark

(PS – If you do have a module conflict, it will likely boil down to choosing between the 2 conflicting modules…)

Hi,

This issue appears if the pricing deals plugin and woocommerce are the only plugins installed. Additionally I get this message only when the pricing deals plugin is installed.
“A PHP session was created by a session_start() function call. This interferes with REST API and loopback requests. The session should be closed by session_write_close() before making any HTTP requests.”

On further investigation I found the following code in vt-pricing-deals.php on line 52

    if(!isset($_SESSION)){
      session_start();
      header("Cache-Control: no-cache");
      header("Pragma: no-cache");
    } 

Please advise as to the purpose of this no-cache header and whether removing it will effect the plugin functionality.

Thanks
