Marc Stridgen Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I would ask what it is you are looking to achieve here. Cache is cleared as and when cache needs to be cleared by the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cache is cleared as and when cache needs to be cleared by the system. I updated clubs in my backend but the update wasn't showing on Google Chrome. I cleared the google chrome browser history and cache but it still wasn't showing the changes I made. So I was looking for a clear cache option in the backend.

Solution Marc Stridgen Posted May 23, 2022 Solution Share Posted May 23, 2022 Then indeed, you would use "clear cache" which can be found by logging into your admin CP, then clicking support in the top right. Note there are some guest caches server side, which may well take a few minutes to clear SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I correct that I only get the red bell notice if you quote me or if I have "followed" the topic? It seems like I should get a notice when there are any posts on a topic that I start.... even if I don't click "follow"... On my own Invision forum website, is there a setting somewhere in the backend that would show users a notice if there are any posts on a topic they started (even if they don't click "follow topic"). Or, can "follow topic" be set to "on" by default and users have to turn if off manually if they don't want notices for their topic? Thanks again.

You can ensure you are automatically following your own topics though. You would do this from your notification options. Click your name in the top right, click account settings, then click notification settings on the right to set these to your own personal preference. 2 minutes ago, Lucas Thompson said: On my own Invision forum website, is there a setting somewhere in the backend that would show users a notice if there are any posts on a topic they started (even if they don't click "follow topic").

The user could then change it if they prefer to do to. Please see the following guide which shows more information on this for you Lucas Thompson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Large Scale Planes Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Is there any way to clear the caches without using the tool in ACP? The reason I ask is that, at the moment, every time I try to load the 'support' page in ACP, I get a MySQL server has gone away error. It's the only page that produces this error, but I'm having other issues that would definitely benefit from clearing the caches (user icons not loading, for example).

Large Scale Planes Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 It seems that restarting the MySQL server fixed the SQL error and allowed the 'support' page to load, which is good. Clearing the caches hasn't resolved the issue with member avatars not loading, however, but that's for a different post. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim M Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Glad to hear that you resolved the MySQL issue. In issues like that where it may have only been that page triggering that error, it is always advised to not ignore it as it could be the sign of a MySQL issue that could be impacting other areas you are unaware of.
