    Hi,

    Is there a way to enable Editors the ability to clear the cache from the toolbar?

    I have a client site using PopUp Builder that the Editor role needs to change every 7-10 days and it’s not showing until Admin clears cache.

    Maybe in a future release can we have a simple checkbox option to enable? But in the short term what do you advise?

    Well, AO picks up on any change in CSS or JS when a page is requested from WordPress, so I’m unsure how the problem would be with AO’s cache.

    What might be the problem is that a page (HTML) is cached by a page cache. Clearing AO’s cache solves your problem ‘by accident’ because AO tries to integrate with different page caches to clear their cache if AO’s is purged?

    Frank,

    Thanks for the swift response….in that case I’ll do some more tests and report back.

    Frank,

    Yup, it has to be the cache plugin then….bugger!

    well, if you decrease the “time to live” of a page in your page cache (either by confirguration or by decreasing the cache-control value of your HTTP response header), you might be able to work around the problem?

    Do you mean change the Cache-Control: max-age value? I’m using Cache Enabler so very few configuration settings and when I run a header check at https://tools.keycdn.com/curl the value is set to 60….which seems awfully low.

    no, in cache enabler you would change the “Cache Expiry” setting, which is 0 by default and the explanation reads “Cache expiry in hours. An expiry time of 0 means that the cache never expires.”

    so setting that to e.g. 12h or 24h would at least ensure a page (with Popup Builder code) is refreshed after that amount of time?

    Ah, Frank, that makes sense. I have it set to 72, so I’ll change it to 12 and see what happens.

    Thanks a bundle!
