Cache question

    Is there a way to force empty cache after a change is made? For example with Optinmonster, if you change something in the settings, such as targeting etc you don’t need to clear the cache for it to take effect, however I’ve noticed the opposed with this plugin.

    An example would be where I changed the targeting while testing the User Tags option, then visited the site again, to see the pop up show up which it shouldn’t have. Clearing the browser cache then it abided by the new terms.

    It’s just concerning because if the system holds on to cache like this then changes won’t take effect.

    Hi @qwik3r – I am not sure if what you are trying to achieve is even possible.

    But, you can try to disable asset caching under your Popup Maker > Settings > Misc and then check if this somehow helps. You can also check out this demo screencast to make it more clear for you: https://share.getcloudapp.com/bLukzNZy Hope you find this useful.

    Otherwise, you can message us directly to our HelpScout support desk. Check this link: https://wppteopupmaker.com/support/ This way, we can escalate this to our developers and ask for their feedback. Thank you!

    So if you make a change to a pop up, it holds on to the previous settings in cache until someone clears their cache?

    Hi @qwik3r,

    Popup Maker shouldn’t be caching any popup settings. If you’re seeing that happen when you’re only changing targeting rules, then there might be something else holding on to an old version of the popup (and settings).

    If you’re tweaking settings a lot, you might need to temporarily disable all caching (browser, server, WP, CDN, etc.) just so you can test your updates right away.

    The asset caching we mentioned before is only improving page speed by going to static copies of minified combined JS and CSS files that Poup Maker uses.

    Asset caching is on by default. We give you the option to turn it off if you don’t want it or while you’re developing custom themes or code (so you can test your changes without flushing the cache all the time)

    Sorry for any confusion.

    We hope that helps.

    Have a great day 🙂

    Mark
