wpForo 1.x.x [Closed] Userdata not updating when logging into my wpFORO forum?

I have read through a lot of posts here and nothing has helped. I confirmed that I am not loading http instead of https, and I am quite confident that I am not using a caching plugin, unless I have one that I do not know about.

 

My problem is simple. When I, or other users login "successfully", they are re-directed to the forum main page but userdata is not shown, and it asks them to "login" again. After about 5 minutes, if you refresh the page, the userdata is updated. How do I fix this so when I login I see userdata instantly and can be logged in immediately after entering my login data?

 

stackdatbread.com/community/ is the link to the forum.

Update, cant login to site at all unless its through WORDPRESS admin. Have tried on multiple browsers, and incognito. Not sure what is causing this as i have disabled different plugins to try and fix the problem.

@chris Hi, I have, as stated in my original post. I went through the http > https check and also checked for caching, but I dont have 3rd party caching plugins that should be causing this. I have literally tried everything last night and on the verge of just going with a different forum plugin because my users cant even login if they try. i see this is a common problem on this plugin because theres a few other posts like this.

I just discovered EasyWP has its own base caching plugin that may be causing my issue.... does anyone know how to add an exception for the WPFORO pages?

@stackdatbread,
Just found out that Easy WP is Hosting Service, you should contact them for more info.
