Only Homepage Getting Cached

We’re happy to hear you’re loving the plugin, John. When checking several pages on your website I see them being cached (e.g. home page and category pages). However, I also come across many other pages that aren’t being cached.

That indicates something is causing those pages from being bypassed. To begin troubleshooting this issue, can you please provide a screenshot of your Cache Enabler settings? Also, would it be possible to receive your Site Health Info? This can be obtained by going to your WordPress dashboard > Tools > Site Health > Info > Copy site info to clipboard.

Hi Cody,

I can see what you are talking about with regards to the homepage and category pages getting cached but not other pages and posts.

I have the screenshot and site health info you requested but how do I get them to you? I do not see a way to attach them here. I apologize in advance if I am just overlooking something. Thanks.

John

The screenshot can be shared by uploading it to an image sharing website, such as Imgur. The Site Health Info can be shared either by pasting it in your reply here (using the code formatting) or a website like Pastebin.

Hi Cody,

Here’s the screenshot of my settings in Cache Enabler as well as the site health info.

No problem, @jboy007. Thank you for providing that information. This appears to be related to the Ad Inserter Pro plugin. After a quick look it looks like this plugin disables caching by defining the DONOTCACHEPAGE constant as true.

To confirm this, if that plugin is temporarily deactivated are all of your pages cached? If yes, I would suggest checking the settings of this plugin to see if anything is available that would allow it to work with a page caching plugin. For example, load ads dynamically with JavaScript.

Hey Cody,

I deactivated the Adinserter plugin as you suggested and flushed Cache Enabler as well as my server cache, as I normally do whenever I change anything on the site. However, now I do not have any pages/posts cached. At least that is what the source code is saying. There is no mention of Cache Enabler and timestamp at the bottom of any.

So I don’t know if it takes a little while to re-cache all the pages again and that is what it’s doing or what. I’ll try running the source code again in a little while and report here if Cache Enabler is working again. Not sure what to make of it.

If a page is not cached the first request will cache the page while delivering the response as received from WordPress. On the next request the cached page previously generated will be delivered. Depending on the site, it is possible for other caching layers to affect this, such as the browser (and server cache). For example, another caching layer could cache the response received when a page has not been cached yet.

When checking your website I’m now able to see that all of your pages I visit are being cached by Cache Enabler. That confirms the Ad Inserter Pro plugin is causing those particular pages to not be cached due to what was mentioned in my last reply.

Hello,

I’m the author of the Ad Inserter (Pro) plugin.

Since this plugin was mentioned I would like to provide some info.

The plugin defines the constant DONOTCACHEPAGE only when you check Disable caching for a block that is inserted:
https://adinserter.pro/documentation/additional-block-settings#insertion

So you need to check your blocks to see if some has this option enabled.

Hope this helps.

Thank you @spacetime, that is very helpful and sincerely appreciated. ??

Thank you Cody and Spacetime as well. You certainly stay on top of your plugin – much appreciated. I will check my settings to see if I inadvertently clicked that option.

Hi Cody,

Just a quick follow-up. I do see some pages are getting cached but others are not. For example, the homepage is not showing Cache Enabler in the source code. I am logged out of my site and have not yet reactivated Adinserter. Are you seeing the homepage cached? Thanks.

Yes, I see your home page being cached: https://i.imgur.com/o3m7DP5.png

Thank you so much Corey (and sorry for calling you Cody earlier). I have never had a free plugin provide this level of customer service. It is greatly appreciated! Now I will see if I can tweak the settings on the other plugin to get it to play nice with Cache Enabler ??
