Hey @rene-michaels,

Initiating a refresh would have the same impact on your analytics as if an end-user manually refreshed their website. Since many analytics can be configured to keep track of sessions, there’s no single answer that’s specific to Force Refresh. If a visitor manually refreshes their browser and your analytics setup registers that as two visits, then the same will happen when initiating a refresh.

On the second question, if you’re referring to native browser cacheing features (i.e., static assets) no, this plugin does not affect those. This plugin imitates a user manually refreshing their browser which will not, under normal circumstances, re-retrieve locally cached static assets. The only circumstances it would re-retrieve those would be if the cache control headers on your assets required re-retrieving, but that’s outside of the scope of this plugin.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hey Leo — following up, version 2.9.4 was just released with some bug fixes, including this one. Feel free to switch to using this version instead of the beta build.

Hey @vnams,

Yes, if you force refresh the entire site, that’ll invoke a refresh for all users connected to non-admin pages on the site.

Perfect – thanks! Feel free to continue to use that build. The fix will be included as part of an upcoming release. Once the new version comes out, feel free to update like normal.

Hey @leodefaveri — thanks for letting me know! I found the reason why the icons weren’t loading (including the ones in the admin bar). Do you mind?downloading the beta here and confirm that it resolves your issue? Full details of its contents are?available here for review.

Hey Ric – since I still haven’t heard back from you on this, I’m going to close out this request.

Hey Ric, just to make sure I understand the issue you’re experiencing, can you send screenshots that detail what you’re seeing? Are you seeing multiple confirmation messages?

Following up on the earlier issues, these have been fixed as part of the newly-released 2.9.2, which can be downloaded at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/force-refresh.

Hey Frans, thanks for sending this over. This is expected behavior. The Admin Bar button doesn’t appear in the page editor UI since that is a separately-defined UI by WordPress. If you’d like to see the full WordPress Admin Bar, you’d need to disable Fullscreen Mode. Detailed instructions on how to do that in WordPress can be found here.

You can, however, initiate a page refresh from that UI without disabling Fullscreen Mode.

Hey Frans,

I’m afraid I still don’t understand the behavior your describing. Please send either a video screencapture (not image screen shots) that show the unexpected behavior your seeing or provide a detailed set of steps to reproduce the issue.

Hey Frans,

just to make sure I’m clear on the issue so I can try and replicate it, can you include a screen capture that shows the behavior you’re describing?

Perfect, thanks! This will be included as part of the upcoming release as well.

Perfect, thanks! I found this issue and added a new beta. Do you mind downloading the latest beta here? Full details of its contents are available here for review.
