Funny issue apparently related with memcached

    Hello,

    I’ve run into a curious behaviour in Gutenberg — it is apparently related to a caching plugin and we have already found a workaround, but I just thought it might be useful to share.)

    On a client’s website, with memcached enabled via the SG Optimizer plugin, changes to a post’s categories are not saved. Example: they publish a “uncategorized” post, then they try to add a category (e.g. “home page”)… the change is not saved.

    Disabling memcached seems to solve the issue. When changing (adding, subtracting) categories and hitting Update, the editor shows the previous state as if nothing was changed, but refreshing the page — or going to the post list — shows the updates correctly.

    Just wanted to share. If you need more info and/or want to investigate, just drop me a message.

    Thank you very much!

    Hi @dewfrost thank you for reporting this here, I’ve seen cases where changes made to the site don’t reflect because of a caching system. The most common issue would be CSS files + caching plugins, sometimes it takes a bit of time for the changes to reflect and usually, the plugin developers suggest clearing the cache within the plugin settings.

    I am not quite sure how the plugin you mentioned works, have you advised them about this issue? They might be able to provide more information.

    Hi @thelmachido thank you for your reply. Yes I reported this to the plugin author first thing. Just thought it might be useful to mention the thing here, sort of for future reference ??

    Oh I see, from what you have shared it seems like something that the plugin authors should work on. It is outside Gutenberg’s scope, however, if there is anything specific that was shared or you noticed that could reflect something within Gutenberg isn’t working as expected please feel free to share.

    Again thanks for providing this information, some folks might be experiencing the same issue. In the meantime, I will mark this as resolved.
