[WP Super Cache] Update cache after edit?

Yes. If it’s not then enable debugging and edit the post again. Check the log..

Does Super Cache delete all preloaded files when you edit a single page? It seems to be happening for me anyways.

I got the same problem, after editing a post or page, the wp-content/cache/supercache directory will be cleared completely and not the cached page or post

It’s not working on my multisite installation unless I have it set it up properly. It’s very annoying because when I create new content it’s not visible to anyone. It’s now four days after I created new pages which are not visible.

Have you enabled debugging and checked what runs when you edit a page?

How can I delete the older, outdated versions being stored in WP Super Cache?

Try the development version, and/or use the debug log and publish a post. Watch the log for the logs of the delete commands and make sure the path to the files is correct.

Hello, thanks for that great plugin !

I experience the same problem: when I update a page, the cache is entirely cleared (although the advanced option “Clear all cache files when a post or page is published or updated” is disabled).

Is it the normal behavior ? It’s inconvenient for me: I wish to use the preload mechanism, but as the cache is cleared when I update a post, it stays almost empty until the next preload, and pages are only cached when requested by visitors.

If it’s not normal, I can generate a debug log, what is the prefered way to submit it ?

Best regards,
Regis.

No, use the debug log in the plugin and see why it does this. Also try the development version.

Thank you for your answer, Donncha,

below is an extract from the debug log, when I edit a specific page.

It seems that no matter what page or article I edit, supercache clears the root of the site (and all pages/articles). Maybe because of my site conf: pages are organized with a static page as “/”, a few main static pages below root, and a lot of child pages under each.
Articles are in a specific category, with a custom permalink to call them.

(After the clear, sometimes the pages still appear in the cache list, all bearing the “.needs-rebuild” suffix, and sometimes it seems they have been deleted -maybe by the automatic preload, if it launches at the same time ? – )

==> what I would like, is to only clear the edited page / article, and not the folders above (and for the specific page assigned to “/”, only clear that page but not all the site’s content, that is below root).
Do you have an idea how to achieve that ?

==> If possible, it would be great if the new version of the cleared page / article could be automatically pre-loaded. Is it possible with the current design of the plugin ?

My best regards, thank you for your work and being in the forums,
Regis.
(Do you plan on hosting your dev code on a git repo like github ? that would be great).

Hello,

sorry to reactivate this thread, but I still haven’t figured out how to make sure that only the edited page/post gets cleared of the cache, and not all the pages/post.

Donncha, do you have an idea on this issue ?

Best regards
Regis

Hi Doncha,

same thing happening here.

log output looks exactly as redjv’s

any ideas?

best regards and thanks in advance
