Thumbnail Cache wird nicht gel?scht

Hey Delaspuke;
Although I understand German, I don’t know it well enough to answer in it so here’s hoping English is OK for you ??

So assuming you have the “cache thumbnails locally” option on; cached thumbnails are stored in wp-content/cache/lyteCache/ removing that directory (or deleting all files in it) will clear the image from cache BUT when it is re-requested LYTE will refetch the image from YouTube and put it in cache again. The only way to avoid this is to disable the “cache thumbnails locally” option.

greetings from Belgium,

Hello, Frank,

I have deactivated the option “Should the thumbnails be cached locally?” and emptied the YouTube Lyte cache.

I have also emptied my caching plugin.

Additionally I deleted the thumbnails from wp-content/cache/lytecache/.

But I still cache thumbnail images. Why is that so?

can you share your site’s URL delaspuke ?

https://drohnen-lexikon.de/

OK, as can be soon on e.g. https://drohnen-lexikon.de/steuerung/ads-b/ the background images are fetched from youtube (so not from local cache) and trying to use lyteCache.php redirects to youtube which is new since 1.7.14 (e.g. https://drohnen-lexikon.de/wp-content/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FG6CqZJChPl4%2Fhqdefault.jpg) so I thinks all is fine now?

Because of the forwarding. Does this mean that I still have pictures somewhere, which are redirected to ytimg?

no, when redirecting no images are cached.
