Automatic clearing of Divi static file cache

    Whenever I update Divi, I get script errors due to its use of a static file cache for JS and CSS files, despite caching options being disabled in the theme settings.

    From what I understand, Autoptimize recreates its files when the theme is updated and triggers a page cache clearing (I use WP Fastest Cache), so I’m looking for a way to clear the Divi static file cache when Autoptimize clears it own.

    The following code does this:

    ET_Core_PageResource::remove_static_resources( 'all', 'all' );

    Is there an action hook I can use for this?

    Frank, will you consider integrating with Divi for other users’ benefit? It’s a pretty popular theme.

    AO itself does not trigger an update on a theme or plugin update, but WP Fastest Cache does and AO “listens” for that using WPFC’s wpfc_delete_cache action, so I would use that one galbaras ? ??

    hope this helps,

    Excellent. Thank you, Frank.

    For anyone interested in code to copy, here’s what I’ve decided to use (still untested):

    add_action( 'wpfc_delete_cache', 'custom_clear_divi_cache' );
function custom_clear_divi_cache() {
	if ( class_exists( 'ET_Core_PageResource' ) ) {
		ET_Core_PageResource::remove_static_resources( 'all', 'all' );
	}
}

    The above code seems to create an infinite loop ??

    Is it possible the Autoptimize (and maybe WP Fastest Cache) keeps getting triggered by the clearing?

    The problem is likely that clearing the Divi cache causes wpfc to also clear the cache, you could try adding checking/ setting a short-lived transient to inside the custom_clear_divi_cache function; if the transient does not exist set it and call the Divi function, if the transient exists do not call the Divi function?
