Query string parameters being stripped and we don’t know why

  • Hello everyone can you please help me? I am really not very coding literate and I have been working with some developers for several months to get some customized work done on my theme. Everything was working pretty well until a couple of months ago when we ran into a problem where “query string parameters are being stripped”.
    -We turned off all caching
    -host checked and confirmed there is nothing they’re doing to cause this
    -Sucuri says you can’t turn off their caching for certain static assets like javascript, but they were able to show that they are not the problem.
    -we tried disabling all plugins and updating everything.
    -checked the htaccess file for caching.
    -The only thing left that I can think of right now is that I used WP Super Minify a couple months ago….maybe that could have done something?
    This is the best summary that my developer has sent me:

    “Wow, just tell them to view source of home page and search for “.js”. You will notice that query parameters are missing for all occurrences. Same is the case for .css resources.
    Tell them that parameters are being added in the enqueue methods. Here is a screenshot for reference -> https://prntscr.com/kbsecc. While they are removed on front-end. Here is a screenshot for reference -> https://prntscr.com/kbseub.”

    I don’t know but my host has given up, sucuri has given up, and it sounds like my developers are thinking about throwing in the towel too.
    Anybody have any ideas? ??

    The line in the child’s stylesheet “Template:” specifies the directory of the parent.

    Still trying to figure this out :-(. According to the developers query string parameters are being stripped in the wordpress code too???

    Hi Joe, I had the same issue and I asked my hosting provider to exclude leading arguments in the URI from the caching system. This solved the issue. I hope this might solve yours also.
