[Bug?] Doesn’t clear custom post type archives

are you talking abour “Archive” page or “category, tag” ?
Can you tell me a sample url please?

I don’t have a live url but i can clarify.

I mean the archives for the custom posty type. If the post type it’s “house” the url would be:
example.com/house/

I don’t mean categories or tags, There’s an option to clear them.
But there’s no option to clear the archive of the post type.

You can either chose “All caches” OR “home + categories + tags + pagination”

So i’m forced to chose “All”. You might say, well do that. But i have 15,000 posts. I find it a waste of resources to clear uneeded cache.

An option for custom post types is needed.

I try to understand. Are you talking about the urls such as below?

https://example.com/2019/07

Hi, no that looks like date archives.

I assume you know what “Custom Post Types” are? You have the option to preload them:

View post on imgur.com

If you had a bunch of custom posts of the type “house” Their urls would be:

example.com/house/new-york/
example.com/house/california/
example.com/house/dallas/

And to view the archives of all “house” post you would visit:

example.com/house/

That last url is the archive of the custom post types that doesn’t get cleared when you post a new house.

So if i create a new “house”:

example.com/house/chicago/

In the archives page:
example.com/house/
I will not see it, i will see the cached version with only the first 3 “house”.

Does that make sense?

Basically what i’m saying is if i post a “house” i need the plugin to clear the cache of “house” archives. in here: https://i.imgur.com/yhbQQu0.png

every custom post does not support it.

https://example.com/product/cars-1
https://example.com/product/cars-2
https://example.com/product/cars-3

For example; if you open https://example.com/product/, you cannot see all the products.

It depends on what the admin needs, if has_archive is set to true when registering the new type it will work. Which is often the case since you generally want the posts to be somewhere.

Since this cache exists for the custom posts that support it, it should also be purged when a new custom post is published.

If it doesn’t exist (is disabled) then there’s no visible issue.

Also going to for example https://example.com/product/ and doing “Clear cache for this page” Has no effect (it loads for a sec but doesn’t delete it).

So the plugin creates the cache but doesn’t delete it specifically. The only solution is doing “Delete Cache” wich i assume deletes everything.

Basically my suggestion is, add the option to clear the custom post archive when a new custom post is created.

Else i’m forced to delete thousands of unrelated cached pages when i only need to clear 1 specific archive.

Please consider.

you can open example.com/house/ and clear cache manually.

Manually how? Sorry i’m confued.

Please take a look at the following tutorial.

As i told you on my previous message, it is broken for custom post types archives.

Also going to for example https://example.com/product/ and doing “Clear cache for this page” Has no effect (it loads for a sec but doesn’t delete it).

I don’t think the plugin is ready to handle custom post type archives. Might need to go back to Automatic’s super cache.

can you tell me a plugin for testing custom post type archives please?
