Okay so I FTP’d into my site and deleted that drop in plugin mentioned above and now everything works!

Turns out it was installed alongside a caching plugin I had installed and when I uninstalled the caching plugin, the drop-in wasn’t removed.

Thanks for your help and fast response and thanks for a great plugin!

I also just noticed this plugin listed in the “drop-ins” menu. Don’t have any idea what it is or how it got there and there is no way to deactivate it.

object-cache.php
Memcached Redux
External object cache.

The real Memcached (not Memcache) backend for the WP Object Cache.

Version 0.1.2 | By Scott Taylor – uses code from Ryan Boren, Denis de Bernardy, Matt Martz, Mike Schroder

What I usually do is go to the widget settings, tick the “reset cover URL cache” option, then select save. After it saves I visit my site and upon first visit everything is current and showing the four books. But if i navigate to another page on my site or if I refresh the page, it reverts back to the two books.

I just tried it now without resetting the URL cover cache and it did the same thing.

Sure thing. My site is https://www.krissinclair.com

The config that it keeps reverting to shows two books: “We Cannot Be Silent” by Al Mohler and “The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism” by Carl F.H. Henry

The current config that it should be showing is four books titled “Conscience”, “Stop Asking Jesus Into Your Heart”, “Truth in a Culture of Doubt”, and “The Whole Christ.”

I am not. I have a Varnish Purge Cache plugin and I tried deactivating that but it didn’t solve the problem. Here is a list of my plugins:
