Caching conflict?

    Our calendar is configured with a Google feed and so events get added/updated each day. We are displaying a list view on the home page to show the current day’s events. Then we show a full calendar on another page in grid view.

    We are also using a caching plugin. We have not enabled javascript minification or file combining. Within our calendars, we have your caching set at the 4 hour (default). But the current day’s events are not reloading each day on the home page, and we’re having to manually clear the page cache. Additionally, the event page (grid view) is thinking the current date is also in the past when we don’t clear that page cache every day.

    Is this a known issue? It looks like the JS that your calendar controls is capable of making ajax requests, and it does appear to be doing that for say paging through the months for example, so could it be that the list view does something different, or that maybe the JS is only being used for subsequent requests?

    Also, just looking around through other bits, this all appears to be built for JS rendering, as in, should be working even with caching plugins.

    Any help or insight is appreciated.

    Hi there,

    In regards to your query here, you need to clear your calendar cache upon adding or updating events in your Google calendar. Here is a guide on how to go about this: https://docs.simplecalendar.io/how-to-clear-calendar-cache/ . Once this is done, you may then proceed to clearing your site cache. With this done, your events should then be properly rendered.

    I hope this information helps. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out once again.

    Kind Regards
