    I am LOVING W3 Total Cache. I use it on all of my client websites. An issue that I am facing, though, is that scheduled posts do not appear at their release date/time. I have to manually purge the cache in the backend to make the post appear. I feel as though their is a simple setting that I am missing, but I just can’t find it. Help, please! Thank you for designing such a fantastic caching system!!!

    Hello @xjmstudio

    I am sorry bout the issue you are experiencing with schedule posts and I am happy to assist you with this.
    Once the post is published the cache should be cleared automatically and this depends on the Performance>Page Cache>Purge Policy section. Can you please share the settings enabled there?
    Also, is the native wp schedule being used for this or some other form of scheduling posts?
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the fast response, Marko. The purge policy has 100% default settings. Yes, I am using the native wp scheduling system. Also, cron jobs are through the native wp system. I just feel like I am missing a setting somewhere…

    Hello @xjmstudio

    Thank you for the information.
    I’ve tried to replicate the issue, however, I was unable to.
    I’ve opened a website in incognito. Scheduled a post in 2-3 mins. After the set period of time, I’ve reloaded the Page in incognito and the post was published.
    Here are the settings in the Purge Policy.
    Thanks!

    Marko, I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to look into this. The settings in my Purge Policy are identical to yours but the cache is not clearing to display scheduled blog posts when they release. The issue may be with the functionality of my theme, Divi. It dawned on me that Divi probably does not implement the same taxonomy rules as the native WP system in regards to displaying category pages, etc. I believe there is nothing at all wrong with W3 Total Cache and as I mentioned before, I use it on all of my client websites—all of these sites with your plugin (and with minimal configuration!) rank A-B in Google PageSpeed Insights, GTMetrix, and Pingdom. To resolve my situation, I have created some code in PHP that reads the release of blog posts and then uses the W3 Total Cache API to clear the pages needed. Works like a charm. If anyone else needs help with this type of custom configuration, I will be more than happy to help. Marko, again, your help is greatly appreciated!!!
