Minify purge not working after page refresh

    Hello,

    I have tried looking through this support forum to find an answer but had no luck.

    I have noticed that after doing a purge of the minified assets (js and css) in a site I am working on, and refreshing the public-facing page that should show some styling changes, said updates do not appear.

    I was of the understanding that purging the minified assets would prevent users from seeing a cached version of the page. Is there a particular setting in the plugin config that I have missed? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks,
    J

    Purghing cache will clear the cached files from your website. However, once the website is accessed, based on the settings within the plugin, your cache will be cached and served to the customers. If you want to test your page without ny cache, you may want to disable W3 Total Cache temporary. But once W3 Total Cache is active, the page gets cached and server accordingly.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Is there not an option to do this without disabling the plugin? It’s not really a viable option to do this every time the css or js is updated.

    Thanks,

    Hello @jasewarner,

    You should try switching to manual minify. That way you can minify files manually and in order.
