I use the popular theme, the7. Curious about the possible overlapping functionality of the Fast Velocity Minify Plugin with comet-cache.

Can comet-cache be used with this or does comet-cache also perform this function? –Thanks — https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/fast-velocity-minify/

Hi,
I have been working with the?Easy Form Builder plugin?and encountered some challenges with page caching. To address these issues, we use the following function to handle page caching with our plugins:

public function cache_cleaner_Efb($page_id,$plugins){
		$page_id = intval($page_id);
		$cache_plugins = json_decode($plugins);
		foreach($cache_plugins as $plugin){
			switch($plugin->slug){
				case 'litespeed-cache':			
					if (defined('LSCWP_V') || defined('LSCWP_BASENAME' )) do_action( 'litespeed_purge_post', $page_id );					
					break;
				case 'wp-rocket':						
					if (function_exists('rocket_clean_post'))	$r = rocket_clean_post($page_id);	
                               break;	
                               .	
                               .
                               .
					
			}
		}
		
	}

However, we’re seeking a more integrated solution. Specifically, we’re looking for a structure or method similar to what other plugins use to manage caching effectively.

Thank you in advance for your help and insights!

Best regards

Hello.

This string is not formatted correctly for translation:

Thanks.

I am getting warning messages on this plugin. I have used it on several sites with good results. But now???

Hello! The GTranslate plugin stop to work, after I download comet cache to my website. How to make it work?

Hi, I have been using Comet Cache for several years and wanted to know if it is compatible with Litespeed servers.

When I first started using this cache plugin my host was not using Litespeed servers but they have since switched to Litespeed I wanted to know if this plugin is 100% compatible or if maybe I need to change any settings to get the best performance.

Any help, info or input will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

thanks very much for providing this plugin as open source, very helpful!

I just stumbled about an old issue while researching:
https://github.com/wpsharks/comet-cache/issues/500

And I just wanted to ask if Comet Cache is currently compatible with CF7 or if I need to add URL exclusion (or other steps)?

My first quick tests did not indicate problems, but I thought I ask – maybe this information is helpful for other users as well. (Seems like DONOTCACHEPAGE is still not implemented in CF7?)

Thanks very much in advance for hints!

Best regards,
Matthias

Hello Raam!
Could you please add Referrer-Policy header to the list of cacheable headers?
/wp-content/plugins/comet-cache/src/includes/traits/Shared/HttpUtils.php (91)

When it’s missing it causes a huge issue with tracking the website activities. The cached page does not return this header, so browsers apply a default setting, which nowadays is usually “strict-origin-when-cross-origin”, this prevents analytic software from collecting data on the website.

I see that this feature have been requested back in 2017, so I guess, I’m not the only one who needs it. https://github.com/wpsharks/comet-cache-pro/blob/170220/src/includes/traits/Shared/HttpUtils.php#L67-L112

Thank you!

This plugin worked nicely for a couple of years, but now we had to disable it.

It opens hundreds of database connections and doesn’t close them. Our server can deliver the 50+ websites of our multisite installation in less than 1.2 seconds, but these persistent connections eat all RAM resources and eventually cause a shutdown.

I’ve not seen an update in Comet Cache Pro in years.

I updated to PHP 8 and got a string of errors relating to Comet Cache, reverted to 7+ and the were gone.

Is this plugin still active?

Hi,
I see that there are several closed topics with this issue – I don’t know why it’s set to closed but as far as I see the problem is still relevant.

in the log file I see lots of lines like this:

`[28-May-2022 16:11:16 UTC] PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent in /wp-content/plugins/comet-cache-pro/src/includes/traits/Shared/HttpUtils.php on line 173

The same line over and over again.

Anyone got a solution?
Regards,
Ram

Is this plugin still in use?
No update for 4 month when I was going to install it.
I love the plugin but if there is No development I have to use W3 Cache now.

Hello

Hello,

I′m experiencing cache conflicts in all pages of my WP instal: https://www.aflorarte.com/bibliolab/ between SiteGround Optimizer Cache and Comet Cache starting with s2member plugin. None of the pages belonging to this website seem to be cached.

According to SiteGround support

“The s2member plugin seems to not set CACHE headers for the website, as you can verify from this header

I’ve also noticed that the s2member plugin doesn’t work well with object caching,

My recommendation is to configure the s2member plugin to allow caching or disable that plugin. Of course, you should contact developer to discuss this first.

It seems that the s2member is controlling the caching of the pages and there are only limited plugins that can avoid it. One of them is Comet Cache and the other is W3 Total Cache, so to have the pages correctly cached, you must use one of the two plugins.”

After this feedback I installed and activated Comet Cache and it seems to be working fine as you can see at the bottom of view-source:https://www.aflorarte.com/bibliolab/
However SG Caching test retrieves error:

ERROR: Cookie verification failed

https://www.aflorarte.com/bibliolab/ is only an example. I am experiencing this problem in every site of the website

Please let me know how to fix this issue

The page I need help with: https://www.aflorarte.com/bibliolab/

Going further in this issue, SG Support extended response saying:

“`There is currently a no-cache header on the site that prevents dynamic caching from working and possibly any other cache plugins as well:

cache-control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age = 0
pragma: no-cache

Note that these headers will also affect Cloudflare’s full page caching, so they should be removed from the site. These headers appear to be used by the comet-cache plugin in the plugins / comet-cache / src / includes / traits / Shared / HttpUtils.php file:

public function sendNoCacheHeaders ()
{
header_remove (‘Last-Modified’);
header (‘Expires: Wed, 11 Jan 1984 05:00:00 GMT’);
header (‘Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age = 0’);
header (‘Pragma: no-cache’);
}
}

With them in place we cannot advise if the full page cache will work`”

Hope this added information is useful

Because I Still don′t fully understand if this problem arises from s2member plugin, I have also posted this query in that forum:

Thank you very much and regards

Hi, is there any way to do not cache any custom block in my page?
And second, I have a problem with body classes, it cached body classes and my body is same for different situations

Hello,

I am using Comet Cache in websites running s2member plugin and they both work fine together.

Now I am setting up a membership website that needes a local payment gateway other than PayPal. So I created it with Woocommerce , “Members” wp-plugin in order to create roles, and “Restrict User Acces” wp-plugin in order to restrict content.

Will Comet Cache work fine with these plugins?

Please advice

Thank you very much

Liliana

Hi there, I receive this message, even though I have allowed client-side browser caching to be Yes.

<!– Comet Cache is NOT caching this page, because the current user visiting this page (usually YOU), appears to be logged-in. The current configuration says NOT to cache pages for logged-in visitors. This message may also appear if you have an active PHP session on this site, or if you’ve left (or replied to) a comment recently. If this message continues, please clear your cookies and try again. –>

Is it possible to change the settings to cache pages for logged-in visitors?

Thanks!

I was using Comet Cache as it was giving me very good results in speed.

All URLs of my website need to have a forced trailing slash [/].

I have fixed the problem in my .htaccess file too.

Trailing Slash comes when I delete my cache. But when the cache is primed. Again the pages are loading without trailing slashes too.

Example, 1. example.com/krishna/ [This is also loading.]
2. example.com/krishna [This is also loading.]

I want the 2nd one to be redirected to the first one. Everything seems okay in .htaccess, I’ve tried a lot of plugins to do this still failed.

I am using Google Cloud Bitnami WordPress.

Here is my htaccess if you need it: https://pastebin.com/p24BAgU5

I have tried WP Rocket same issue persists. No issue using LiteSpeed Cache, Cache enabler.

Please, developers, explain me in simple language. You are my last hope ??

Hey everyone!

Few weeks ago we released Rapid Cache which is fork of Comet Cache released under the GPL license.

Since the Comet Cache project was abandoned we have been dealing with spike of problems in our customer sites (same as you) and ultimately decided to fork Comet Cache and used forked version internally, later we decided to publish our fork in public so others will find it useful.

We fixed all PHP notices and errors and improved it’s existing functionality and documentation. Also we re-wrote big chunks of the code.

Feel free to try it, if you need any help contact us in the support forum. Please do not expect help for the PRO version of Comet Cache. There is no PRO version planned for now but maybe sometime in future.

Best,
MegaOptim

Hi,

the easiest way to look into the existing thread about the problem.
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/5-2-x-dont-work-with-cometcache/
There the developer has summarized the problem well.

In short, putting the script in the exception list does not bring success, only disabling “compriemiere inline JavaScript” or completely disabling Comet Cache brings success.

Otherwise, what is described in the thread will happen.

Thanks for help

PS:
your mail servers no longer work.
If you’ve given up CometCache, it would be nice if you let us know, especially the paying PRO customers.

THANK YOU

Does this plugin work with wordpress version 5.4.1?

If Comet Cache is active, I get a critical error opening WP-LOGIN.PHP.
Latest version of WP, PHP 7.3.

Here as on their forum, there is no more answer, the plugin seems to be abandoned.

Hello,

Can you please clear the cause for the warnings below? Thanks!

Hi,

I use Comet cache free and pro version, and want to know if you will do something for webp image, I see other cache take care about webp.

I use Shortpixel plugin who convert my image in webp, but they say some cache don’t cache webp image, then I don’t know if it make a big difference, or if it’s better to me to use a cache who work with webp image or if you’ll do something about that.

Thanks

Hi,

I use your Pro version and my site uses cloudflare – however on Google speed test i am getting errors related to plugins caching. see here: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyesnocasino.com%2F

Can you please suggest how to solve it.

Plus, the help button on your site doesn’t work. Do you have some contact email for paying customers?
Thanks

Hi, the website in question retain an earlier the cart value when moved to another page after adding to cart. It causes a flash of previous value on the new page. This does not happen when I use other caching plugins, but Comet cache gives the best performance improvement so I would like to stick with it if I could get some help in excluding a cookie woocommerce_items_in_cart

I need a feature or a way to exclude this cookie as described here in
https://www.wpfastestcache.com/tutorial/woocommerce-settings/

under cart widget section on this link.

I also tried excluding the cookie with a custom plugin code like
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/excluding-specific-cookies-such-as-woocommerce_cart_hash/

but it did not help. Could someone help me here to continue using Comet Cache please.

Thanks.

Just checking in on update status. Hoping this cache plugin isn’t abandoned. Been the best for years.

Any word?

When cometcache is active, it has been adding a trailing slash to AIOSEO’s dynamically generated sitemap. So that the sitemap.xml page ends in .xml/

This is resulting in the sitemap still being present on the page, but being un-viewable via web browser and resulting in the standard error “Error loading stylesheet: Parsing an XSLT stylesheet failed.”

I have added the following to both URI exclusions and auto-cache clearing:
/sitemap**.xml
/**sitemap**.xml

Neither have seems to have fixed the issue. I will leave comet-cache enabled for now so you can see the issue. AIOSEO is a long standing plugin, so I find that having compatibility issues is strange. Perhaps it’s all my operator error!

Presently I am running PHP 7/71 (version 7.1.32).

If I update to any PHP version that is higher, my site throws errors. Could this be the plugin? I am asking as the PHP Compatibility Checker seems to be unable to scan it and/or seems to think it is not working properly.
