    Hey Tobias

    I update some of my tablepress tables every 24 hours by uploading a new csv file.

    The issue I have is that after updating, depending on what device I use sometimes I will see the new table and sometimes I will see the old information (ie my laptop shows new table data but my iphone shows old table data). I imagine this may not specifically be an issue with tablepress, but is there a way to forcibly ensure that the site always displays the up to date tablepress data?

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    This could be related to caching indeed. At first, please try turning off the TablePress caching, by extending the used Shortcode to
    [table id=123 cache_table_output=false /]

    If that also does not help, I can only assume that there is some other caching in place on your site.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hello Tobias,

    exactly THIS was my problem, too. This thread with cache_table_output=false was the solution. Simply and easy!

    Remark:
    I prefer a more progressive way. My opinion is that the TablePress default caching should be turned off for each new table. If caching ís required or useful then cache_table_output=true can be set. A general property to set the default behavior could help, too. But I believe that there are reasons to start with cached tables ;).

    Have a nice weekend

    Hi,

    good to hear that this helped in your case as well!

    Yeah, I need to find a better way to detect if caching should be turned off. Turning it off to begin with would be the worst decision, I think, because the majority of users wants it.

    Regards,
    Tobias
