New Posts Not Displaying in Top Slider After latest Update

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
Can you please sahre the screenshots of both sections on what you are seeing with the W3 Total Cache enabeld and also disabled so I can see the difference.
I’ve bypassed the cache and the page looks the same so I would appreciate if you could share more information.
Thanks!

Hello Marko

Thank you for your reply and your assistance, here it is, I see another issue, also with an example, posts are duplicated on top & below.

Please let me know if you need anything else.

The case in question, new posts below, not on slider on top.

Plugin enabled: https://justpaste.it/gn8o0

Plugin disabled: https://justpaste.it/fnwog

The other issue, posts duplicated (on top & below)

Plugin enabled: https://justpaste.it/gxvw1

Plugin disabled:https://justpaste.it/ekvhq

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for your feedback

Just to confirm, does the issue persist if you rollback the plugin to the previous reason

Thanks!

Yes, if I rollback to “active” the issue persist, so I have to clear the cache to make the change permanent (until new posts are created).
It is a newspaper site, so we have to show whats is new on top.

Thank you again.

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for your feedback.
I am not sure if we undersood each other. The question was if the issue persists if you rollback the plugin version to 2.7.5?

Thanks!

oh sorry, my bad, I meant if rollback to the previous plugin adjustment (active again), I havent tried rollback to version (2.7.5). Is it safe? just have to uninstall current and install the previous version? settings remain?

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for your patience.
In the first post, you mentioned that you have version 2.7.2 and the most recent version 2.7.6
Can you please confirm this?

You can use WP Rollback plugin to revert to the pervious versions of the plugin

Thanks!

Sorry about that, a typo, 2.7.6, the latest.

I was pasting the version, but was the WP version, 6.6.2, fixed over it, didn’t notice didnt fix the last number.

I’ve already downloaded the 2.7.5, just want to be sure about the replacement process.

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for your feedback.
Just install the previously mentioned WP Rollback plugin and in the plugin section, rollback to the previous version of the W3 Total Cache

Thanks!

Hello Marko, thank you for the follow up.

Ahh, missed that part, I can use that plugin to install the previous version. OK, let me do that tonight and let you know.

Hello Marko, sorry for the delay, I just did the rollback to version 2.7.5.

Both issues were resolved, so it’s definitely related to the update to version 2.7.6.
Do you think this is something the W3 Total Cache developers should look into?
Especially when a new update, say 2.7.7, is released, could it present the same issue as with the 2.7.6 update?

Thank you for the follow up.

Hello again, I just wanted to inform you that version 2.7.6 was also responsible for another issue. It conflicted with the system cron (not WP cron), causing all scheduled posts to fail and show as “Missed Schedule.” After reverting to the previous version, the scheduled posts were published successfully.

Hello @eguzmana

Thank you for your feedback.
Agin, this is something we cannot seem to replicate and there are no issues of these kind when I performn tests as you mentioned.
I’ll test this more to see what may cuse this, however, I would recommend staying with the current version if it works for you

Thanks!
