    Good job Laura! I was just going to recommend that you save your $ and do some searching around. I’m not a code monkey, but I have been able to figure out all of my challenges. I’m even learning to eat bananas. ??

    Eventually, I went to W3 Total Cache. Both products are pretty good.

    Way to go

    Seriousthings: thanks so much for your encouraging words.

    WP Super Cache is working great for me know. I just did a vertain.com speed test to compare the speed of my site with caching on vs. caching off. My site loads 7.50 seconds faster with the caching turned on. That totally justifies the time spent troubleshooting WP Super Cache. But it’s nice to know that I could try W3 Total Cache as an alternative.

    So I get the error that my test pages don’t match but when I actually check the time stamps while loading the site they are the same.

    I am assuming that everything is actually working but how can I know for sure?

    It’s kind of imperative as a couple of my sites went down today for traffic when the plugin was disabled.

    Hellooo…

    Ok, so here was how I resolved the problem getting the error “The pages do not match! Timestamps differ or were not found!”.

    I was setting up a new blog, where I installed the new version of WP Super Cache (version 0.9.9.7), where I was copying the custom permalink info off of another older WordPress blog which has WP Super Cache version 0.9.9.3 installed.

    In the older WordPress blog I have the custom permalink field set to “/%category%/%postname%.html”.

    When I copied the information into the new blog, which I have installed the newer 0.9.9.7 version of WP Super Cache, the test would not pass, giving me the error “The pages do not match! Timestamps differ or were not found!”.

    I played around with it for a little while, and realized that adding the customer field as “/%category%/%postname%/”, (which removed the “.html”, and added a “/” forward slash at the end of the text as you can see) was the solution. The ‘Test Cache’ ran through correctly then, and says “The timestamps on both pages match!”

    Problem now solved!

    I hope this helps someone else since it took me a little time to figure it out.

    ok, I solved it as follow:

    change ‘caching’ from ‘use PHP…’ to ‘USE mod_rewrite…” to solve this case

    possible cause: static link way or other post way had been changed many times ,so use mod_write can resolve this case

    Using WP Super Cache 0.9.9.8 on WP 3.0.4 and ran into the same “The pages do not match! Timestamps differ or were not found!” message. This was on a brand new fresh install with no other plugins running. I set this up purely to test WP Super Cache.

    Following the trail left by @randallwkowalenkoinc I modified the permalink format. In my case I changed “/archives/%post_id%” to “/archives/%post_id%/” (the only change is that trailing “/”). Now the Test Cache results in “The timestamps on both pages match!”

    Thanks, @randallwkowalenkoinc! I wonder if the maintainers of WP Super Cache could make the plugin more forgiving of permalinks without trailing slashes?
