 * hey guys, i’m using a plugin called
 * “eBay Feeds for WordPress”
 * it works pretty good, but, the problem is, my website caches the posts, and will
   not update every time the page is opened, (if ever) which is a pain in the butt.
   i have verified that ebay’s feed IS changing, but my site will not parse the 
   new info unless i change a parameter in the feed link.
 * like for example an item may show $3,000 (4 bids) but when i go to ebay it says
   $4,500 (15 bids) and it ALSO reflects 4500 15 bids in the FEED that i copy from
   my post and put into a browser …
 * then if i change my link from displaying items=1000, to 1001 in the short code,
   it will parse and show the correct info….. but then if i change it back to 1000,
   it shows the old info again!!!!
 * I have about 100 feeds showing throughout my site, i would hate to change the
   feeds every few minutes to show accurate data.
 *  I have tried every cache plug in listed in the store, most of them are FOR caching,
   not killing cache.
 * I understand that some of the cache issues are typically browser related, but,
   in my case, i can view it in chrome, I.E. Firefox and have the same result even
   after clearing browser caches, and then can go to my phone, and a different computer
   and STILL see the exact same results, even if i have never been to the site on
   that computer…
 * I have also noticed that when i put the feed in the “visual” area of the post
   box, it shows up ok, then if i go to “text” the feed shows &amp… i’m not sure
   if that breaks the short code, or if i need to be putting the feed stuff directly
   into text instead of visual, BUT….. i have tested it, and it makes NO difference
   for cache. it’s worth mentioning too, whenever i make physical changes to my 
   website, it updates within seconds on my computer, but these feeds don’t.
 * VISUAL

   items=”1000″]
 * so, what do i need to do here?
 * i’m not a programmer, but, if someone tells me an exact code to place in an exact
   file, i can do that.
 * Please help!!!!!!
 * since i know that people will say “check the other plugins you’re using
 * here is a complete list of plugins
 * akismet not active
    content.ad active ebay feeds for wordpress active rss post
   importer not active
 * that’s it… nothing else is installed.
 * thanks in advance guys.

 * Is it only things using ebay Feeds for WordPress that you’re running into caching
   trouble with?

 * The menus won’t change either.. the description still shows under the label, 
   so you see
 * Acura
    Acura
 * Bentley
    Bentley
 * Chevy
    Chevy
 * etc, even though i deleted that days ago….. and yeah, i tested it on different
   computers, it’s not a browser cache issue.

 * bentley was a bad example.. i wasn’t looking at the list when i made it… we see
   the same thing. point being though, none of those second ones should be there,
   and are not in the options. alfa audi bmw etc, the fields are all clear for that
   second description. its part of the caching issue i’m fairly certain.

 * Then you’ll need to get in touch with your hosting provider again. If you aren’t
   in control of the cache, someone is.

 * title attributes in the menu are blank, and in the posts/categories section, 
   the description fields are blank, though there are slugs.. but i changed acura
   to acurda and it still displays as acura… again, i think cache.

 * That depends on the host. Some do give you cache controls, some don’t. In general,
   if you don’t see anything obvious, you don’t have it.

 * -_- they locked me out of WHM when they created a temporary password yesterday
   so they could log in, and they didn’t tell me what it was apparently… omfg…. 
   another 45 minute wait i guess… i hate when something that takes 3 minutes to
   fix, takes 3 days and counting. i set up the entire website in less time lol

 * usually they are pretty good. dude told me they had a ton of signups and people
   messing around with it because of their gigantic black friday sale they just 
   had, and are being run ragged. understandable… but, my caching issue will be 
   a wait… i think i’ll just get back to my other website for the time being, and
   leave this open in case someone has a brilliant idea
