Sure did. * The initial problem I had was resolved. The second problem, which we discussed, which I have no power over, is the purging of cache when posts and comments are created. Transients set by the user, with a timeout of one week are purged instantaneously once a post/comment is submitted, rendering its purpose useless. * Don’t get me wrong, purging of cache is useful/necessary when it comes to keeping the website dynamic, but it interferes with user-set transients _longer_ than the specified life-time period via the object cache settings, which are less dynamic and costly to run (i.e retrieving information from foreign API’s which impose strict rate-limiting policies) * In the event that the cache needs to be purged, a distinction could be made so user-set transients are kept intact while other cached items set by W3TC are purged. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] Transients never seem to expire](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/transients-never-seem-to-expire/) * Thread Starter [VicePrez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viceprez/) * (@viceprez) * [14 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/transients-never-seem-to-expire/#post-2105381) * Alright.

I’d like to point out that disabling object cache solved the problem. I’m still looking for a more practical solution that doesn’t involve disabling object cache. Any suggestions on how to keep it enabled and respect transient expiry dates is appreciated. * Thanks. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Version 3.1.2 bug(?): is_paged(), index.php, and multiple loops](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-312-bug-is_paged-indexphp-and-multiple-loops/) * Thread Starter [VicePrez](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viceprez/) * (@viceprez) * [15 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-312-bug-is_paged-indexphp-and-multiple-loops/#post-2058018) * This problem has been resolved.

Ill try to illustrate it. * **i pasted the following for Category X:** * $do_not_duplicate = $post->ID; * **and the following for Category Y:** * $do_not_duplicate[] = $post->ID * **and i kept the following for all my posts** * array($do_not_duplicate))); if (have_posts()): while (have_posts()) : the_post();?> * well, what i noticed is that when i did that, Category Y’s post shows up in * all my posts* and Category X’s post disappears, when it was the other way round before you gave me the new coding. I know now that at least the coding (for all my posts) reads whats being passed down from Category X. * any other suggestions? i think your on the right track. thanks again.
