[Plugin: WP Super Cache] My Page 2 is randomly redirecting to other posts

Over at the WP Page Navi plugin are saying the problem lies with Super Cache plugin. This is a serious issue because it damages blog SEO by multiplying the number of URLs to the same page, really terrible.

bolonki – well, I can’t replicate it unfortunately. You’ll have to try debugging it yourself.

Hi bolonki and Donncha,

Over on the Page Navi forum I found the below and added it to the “Add here strings (not a filename) that forces a page not to be cached.” section in Super Cache. This has seemed to fix the problem as I have not been able to replicate it after this was added.

/page/.*/\?
/.*\?

Prior to adding this I was able to replicate the issuse all the time.

Did you try the dev version and disable caching for GET requests? That should in theory stop those pages getting cached.

Hi Donncha,
I’m using the dev. version, but I don’t know how to disable “Get requests”

Thank you in advance.

Look for this option on the Advanced Settings page – “Don’t cache pages with GET parameters”

Hi Donncha,
The Dev. version that I was using didn’t have that, but I just downloaded the newest version and I found that. I will keep you updated.

Thank you again for your help, I appreicate it.

hunt4freebies,

Thanks for share with us.

Have you tested your string code? Stopped to cache page navigation?

Hi feliped3,

Yes I did for about 5 days and didn’t have any trouble at all. ??

But now what I’m going to test is downloading the new development version of WP Super Cache and disabling the “GET requests” and I will report back to let you know how that works out.

Kind Regards,
Michele

Hi Donncha,
I have the new dev. version and I disable the GET requests and it caused the problem immediately.

So I need to put the string back in

/page/.*/\?
/.*\?

So it fixes the problem.

hunt4freebies,

Oh, very nice! A simple solution, hehe.

About the unckeck “GET requests”, I’m sorry, but it did’nt solved our problem. I’ve tested a few weeks ago.

I’ll test now your string rule ??
