 * It’s been a while now that i cannot add resource hints through this plugin. All
   the resource hints i had are there but i cannot add new ones. I have the js file“
   wp-content/plugins/pre-party-browser-hints/js/find-external-domains.js” excluded
   from all the cache plugins that i use. WP-Rocket, Autoptimize Asset Clean up,
   Cloudfare, Async JS. I have tried everything and i no longer know what to do.
 * The error i get is this:
 * “Failed to create hint. If you have an active caching system, it is recommended
   that you clear your cache if you are having difficulty viewing these changes.”
 * Please help
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-inserting-hints-cache%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * [@jimon07](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jimon07/) Thanks for telling me
   about this, I wish you had told me sooner though. Can you try to deactivate those
   plugins, one at a time, and tell me if you are able to add hints?

 * As it seems. I deactivated all the caching plugins including WP-Optimize and 
   the problem persists. I could not add a resource hint. The same problem and error
   message occures. I have also added the js file in cloudlflare as a cache exception.

 * Let try this:
    a) can you try to deactivate the plugin, and then reactivate it?
 * b) can you open up your browser dev tools, click the “console” tab, and tell 
   me if you see an error message when you try creating a hint?

 * I deactivated and re activated the plug-in and tried to add a hint with the dev-
   tools open and the were no error in the console.

 * I’d like to take a closer look at this if possible. Do you have a development
   environment available that I could login with to check this out myself?

   1.8.1 and see if that resolves your issue.

 * I have upgarded and now the problem is slightly different. I dont get the same
   error. it says “Resource hint created successfully. If you have an active caching
   system, it is recommended that you clear your cache if you are having difficulty
   viewing these changes.” It is green but the resource hint is still not added.
   I refresh the page and the resource hints is not there.
 * I checked the html of the page and i could not find the hint together where the
   other hints are created.
 * I have created a testing environment for you to check the problem. How can i 
   send you the details?
 * The browser is Google Chrome 96.0.4664.45 and the php version is 7.4 FPM

 * [@jimon07](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jimon07/) I did login to your 
   site, but haven’t been able to figure out exactly where the problem lay. I will
   need a bit more time if that’s alright.

 * [@jimon07](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jimon07/) I fixed the issue- it
   turns out your db table was missing a column.

 * Ok, I don’t know how could this happen. And how can I fix it? Because you were
   working on a staging site.
