Problem with WordPress Toolbar after W3 Total Cache update

    I updated the W3 Total Cache plugin from version 0.9.7 to 0.9.7.1 a few days ago. That was the only plugin that I updated.

    Since the update the WordPress Toolbar (Admin bar), which is shown on top of a page as a logged-in WordPress user, is broken. A shadow of the toolbar items appear under the actual items (in preview mode of a page, not in edit mode). The shadow appears for all the items that are located on the right side of the “Performance” item (which is for W3 Total Cache), including for the search bar and the user profile.

    When I disable W3 Total Cache this issue disappears and the Toolbar looks normal. I’m using WordPress 5.0.3. I could also attach a screenshot of the broken Toolbar if you provide an email address.

    Could you please check this and let me know your suggestion for fixing it. Thank you.

    Hello,

    Can you disable W3 Total cache setting one by one and save the settings and see which one is causing the issue?

    Thanks for your reply.

    I disabled and tested them one-by-one. Only disabling “Minify” solved the problem. Disabling other settings such as Page Cache had no effect. So it seems the problem is from minification.

    Just for your information, these are my settings for Minify (although changing these settings had no effect):
    – Minify mode: manual
    – Minify Cache Method: Disk
    – HTML minifier: Minify (default)
    – JS minifier: JSMin (default)
    – CSS minifier: Minify (default)

    Hello,
    Yes there is a minify issue in the latest update. More specifically it’s HTML minify.
    This will be resolved in the upcoming fix but for the time being, you should disable HTML minify In Performance>Minify if minify is enabled.
