[Forum] Clear CMS cache cron

[sticky]

How do I create a cron job for this?

[sticky]

Anyone?

The place to ask for help writing custom code would be over on vbulletin.org, the modification site.

(At one time I had posted an outline for writing your own cron job, so do search over there first.)

I put one up on vbulletin.org a while back but have since disabled it on my site due to improved cache operations in the cms.

The one you put up does not work for me. Can you put up a new one?

I don't think it is no longer needed for 4.1.10.

I disagree...

One of the hourly crons already cleans up the cache.

I thought so too. But I've noticed that I have to manually Clear System Cache to update the replies displayed in the CMS articles. When I promote a thread to an article, it will display the number of comments. But if someone posts a comment through the original thread, the comment doesn't display in the article view. It does, however, update the number of comments.

Thoughts?

It believe was never designed to do that, as comments should always be posted in the article, so the comments cache isnt expired when a new comment is posted [directly] in an articles associated thread.

However, from memory I believe the changes for VBIV-952 will actually change that, so the relevant comments cache is expired on a reply to the associated thread.

I still get a problem with comment counts for CMS, mine is the front page will show the right count, clicking read more will show all the comments most the time but the wrong count, clearing system cache fixes that.

[Paul M]

Its not really very clear exactly what you are referring to, but there is still one bug that got delayed to 4.1.12 - but that was for Static pages and PHP Eval pages, not articles.

[C.Birch]

Basically the articles on the front page (short versions) are up dating fine, but the version you see when you click read more to view it in full with the comments also is not updating and is needing me to clear system cache myself via admin cp.

[C.Birch]

You will see that the top comment count does not match the bottom comment count, also a edit i made to the article does not show up.



After i clear the system cache via admin cp both comment counts match and the article edit shows up.
