Cache Breaks Ajax Login Functionality

  • Hello,

    i’ve implemented a an ajax login system that reloads the webpage after a sucessfull login, depending on the user’s role (different roles have access to different contents on the frontend).

    However, when using this cache plugin, on sucessful login, after the redirect the page is shown as if the user hasn’t logged in. Refreshing the page manually shows the correct information, confirming that the login was sucessfully made.

    Disabling the cache plugin the login system works as expected, leading me to believe that there is something related to the cache settings that is showing users the previous version of the page.

    Is there any way i can change this? Can someone point me in the right direction on what settings i should use on Swift Performance?

    Thanks in advance,
    Bruno

    Is it frontend login with redirection or backend? Is caching for logged in users and/or Merge Assets for Logged in Users enabled?

    Hello. Thanks for the great plugin. But I have got some issue with swift plugin. It blocks normal work of my login plugin(login via sms DIGITS plugin). When I purge cache it works fine. Maybe somebody knows how to exclude any plugin from cache at all? I dont use merge script or css option, so I cant exclude js files via swift “Exclude Scripts” function. Maybe I can write some rules at nginx config or use another way to exclude plugin from swift cache? I`ll be very thankful for any help. Thanks.

    @fredawd Sorry it took so long to get back to you.

    the website is located here: https://sinks.rodi.pt/en/login/

    it is a frontend login with redirection, using ajax.

    Caching is disabled for logged in users, as well as merge assets.

    Thanks for your help!

    Did you exclude login page from cache?

    Hello @fredawd, thanks for your reply.

    Login page is excluded, but there is a redirection to the homepage on sucessfull login, and at that point the homepage looks like the user hasn’t logged in yet.

    If the user navigates to any other page after that, it shows the user menu properly, but not on that first redirection.
