GD Managed WP Hosting Cache Issue

    Hi There-

    I’m trying to work through the caching issue here. GD has a Varnish cache built in.

    I’ve activated the friendly urls for BWP Minify, and it seems to work great. If I flush the Varnish cache, it’s fine.

    Then, I make an edit to a page, click save, click Clear Cache (Varnish), and boom, it drops the BWP cached CSS files. If I then clear the BWP cache, and then again clear the Varnish Cache, boom, it’s back.

    Is this a godadddy cache issue or just a compatibility issue? My theme should have all static CSS at the moment, and not dynamic.

    Please walk me through how this cacheing feature is supposed to work in BWP. What’s the safest route to take when using BWP Minify on GoDaddy Managed WordPress with Varnish Cache built in?

    Thank you.

    Are you using a Varnish WordPress plugin or is it something provided by GD?

    Frack, this just happened again on a Managed WordPress GoDaddy account. I still don’t understand why the cache of BWM get’s dropped. I have the cache date to 7 days on BWM.

    Yes, GD has varnish built-in.

    Can you check to see if there’s a Varnish plugin under Plugins? Could be a regular plugin or a must-use one.

    Also, is there a setting page for Varnish where you can exclude certain files/paths?

    GoDaddy has it turned on by default. Don’t see a specific place to exclude files/paths in must-use.

    What else should I look for?

    OK I guess it’s the “class-gd-system-plugin-cache-purge.php”. Now only if there’s a way to download that plugin so I can take a look at the codes.

    There’s also an object-cache.php in wp-content/ which reads:

    /*
Plugin Name: APC Object Cache
Description: APC backend for the WP Object Cache.
Version: 2.0.6
URI: http://txfx.net/wordpress-plugins/apc/
Author: Mark Jaquith
Author URI: http://coveredwebservices.com/

Install this file to wp-content/object-cache.php

Based on Ryan Boren's Memcached object cache backend
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/memcached/

    and here is what the cache-purge.php reads at the header:

    /**
 * Class GD_System_Plugin_Cache_Purge
 * Clear the cache at appropriate times.
 * @version 1.0
 * @author Kurt Payne <kpayne@godaddy.com>
 * @see https://github.com/techcrunch/wp-async-task#quick-start

    FYI: I was having many issues (I strongly believed being related to caching) on my recent install on a new Godaddy Managed WordPress hosting. The easiest problem to explain was a mix up of tags and categories for each post. Every time I had a mix up, flushing the cache and refreshing was fixing the issue. Then after browsing a few pages, the mix up appears again, always corresponding to a post I had seen a few pages before (but after the flushing).

    I asked if godaddy could disable their caching, the answer was no.

    I migrated a copy f my site on WPEngine and my test site not only runs fasted but that issue above and several others are gone!!!

    It has been 48h of testing on WPE, without a single glitch. I am waiting for just a few more days and bye bye GD Managed WP…

    @accur are you using BWP Minify with WPEngine?
