Homepage cache not refreshed after posting new post

[baspisa]

When I publish a new post it does not show on the homepage when logged out. (Old cache is shown). Page served is not in the browser cache. For me (Lite user) the only option to refresh my homepage is to disable and re-enable the plugin. This behaviour was introduced with version v141110

[Kalfer]

I confirm too. If "Auto-Clear Home Page" is enabled, the cache is not cleared when you publish a new post.

Thank you for the bug report. I have confirmed this bug as well. I will investigate further and update here when I know more.

The underlying cause of this is an extra leading \/ in one of our regex patterns.

No match...

$string = '/index.u/1.html';
$regex = '/\/(?:\/index)?(?:\.|\/(?:page\/[0-9]+|comment\-page\-[0-9]+)[.\/])/i';

preg_match($regex, $string, $m);
print_r($m);

Matches properly...

$string = '/index.u/1.html';
$regex = '/(?:\/index)?(?:\.|\/(?:page\/[0-9]+|comment\-page\-[0-9]+)[.\/])/i';

preg_match($regex, $string, $m);
print_r($m);

Referencing this line of code...
https://github.com/websharks/quick-cache-pro/blob/000000-dev/quick-cache-pro/includes/share.php#L1560

We need to consider that $_host_cache_dir_tmp_regex may contain \/(?:\/index)?. In other words, a simple ltrim() will not work here, we need to be more particular about how this is sanitized to avoid the issue reported here.

I am having the same problem. When will be the next release? What is your suggestion for a temporary fix before the new release?

[iGameMom]

@raamdev do you have an estimate when the new release will be out and fix the issue?

[raamdev]

@iGameMom We're doing a beta release today and will likely have the next public release over the weekend or on Monday at the latest. If you're interested in testing a beta release of Quick Cache before the next version comes out, please sign-up to be a beta tester here.

The latest release of Quick Cache, v141205, includes a fix for this issue: http://www.websharks-inc.com/post/quick-cache-v141205-now-available/

[yankustefan]

Hi, is Quick Cache v141205 still accessible. Or log of the changes made?
I still have 131206 on an WP 3.7.1 and don't have the time to upgrade WP and migrate to Comet Cache.
Thanks for any input.

[jaswrks]

@yankustefan I'm afraid not. Quick Cache was recently taken offline at WordPress.org in an effort to avoid confusion and to prevent people from downloading Quick Cache, since it is no longer maintained, in favor of ZenCache or Comet Cache.

However, we do have a release archive available that goes back to the first versions of ZenCache and includes all current versions of the newly renamed Comet Cache plugin. See: https://cometcache.com/release-archive/

@jaswsinc Thank you for your reply! I bought another licence, so I can download it, and will try if it works and fixes the problem. Cheers!
