Hi Robert. 

Can you explain what this is or where we can find it? "Added: Signature Style"

BUG: Admin user cannot open PM attachment "you are not permitted to view this attachment"

This was working fine in 1.2.0 when viewed earlier today.Had to go looking in /wp-content/uploads/wpforo/attachments/ to view the files.  Can I request a fix?

Also it is a good idea to exclude the forums from your current caching plugin or method (if you have already one). Running two caching it not a good idea, while it may work depending on the plugin/method. If it works, you just create an extra "hop" for your pages.

I was wondering about this point too.

I'm using wp super cache, in wpForo I disabled the user cache [before the upgrade].

But my site includes also a blog, that is a lot of static data that benefit from that.

I could not find a way to separate, it is like all or nothing.

Now wpForo has a built in cache, that is a great feature, and like you said, I will have 2 running in parallel.

Therefore, I believe that the built-in cache of wpForo is good for those how are having only a forum.

I would like to hear what @Robert has to say about it.

** another comment about  1.3.0 **

After the upgrade all seems to be good but when I tried to open a thread there was nothing there!!

I had to shut it down a restart and everything was fine. 

Thanks

It is easy to exclude from WP Super Cache the base page of wpForo and all the rest (via wildcards, i don't remember how WPSC does it, something like "/community/*).

For example i use Comet Cache and i have excluded "/community/*" and that's it. Visiting my wpForo, i see in the html source:

<!-- Comet Cache is NOT caching this page, because `$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']` matches a configured URI Exclusion Pattern on this installation. -->

 something like "/community/*).

Do I need the wild card?

Thank

@Yossik from what you posted, i think no wildcard is needed. You can verify this by enabling for a while the DEBUG of WPSC and see the html source for the signature and what it says when visting a wpForo TOPIC. It should say that it is excluded (or something like that).

Hi Robert! Great update!

I have one question. Have you tested that

Added: Optimized flush_rewrite rules function

with Pods plugin? Does it work properly? Thank you.

Including litespeed?

Yes, i guess so. Robert could also reply about it, since he knows better all this. But having two caching methods seems like an open invitation for problems to me.

I think we should wait a bit and see how efficient the new caching mechanisms really are. Because right now, i have enabled the HTML cache ONLY, and i don't really see any big difference in queries executed.

Thank you for your feedback. I really appreciate your interest in all changes of wpForo. We are open to discuss and introduce all aspects of wpForo features. Unfortunately I see wrong tracking of wpForo cache and I'd like to describe it here.

First of all wpForo Cache works with forum pages and doesn't work on blog pages. WP Super Cache and other caching plugins work on blog pages but not on forum pages (only for forum home). The 99% of forum content is not cached by WP Cache plugins, so here wpForo Cache comes and does this job, thus completes full caching of website. These two cache solutions just complement to each other. Disabling one of them you'll get un-cached content in your website. wpForo Cache is not designed to do the same job as other cache plugins. It works in processes where other cache plugins have no access. wpForo Cache should be enabled for all websites, it doesn't matter you have 10 posts or millions.
 
Second, wpForo object cache controls the number of cache files and keeps those within allowed limits. In all cache folders you'll see maximum 10-100 files. Only the /item/post/ may have up to 1000 files (but in 90% cases up to 100) in very active forums. The size of these files are a few KBs, there may be a very few files with more than 10KB, so you'll not have problems with file system and disk space. In total it may take 1-50MB.
 
Third, the caching system and object caching are dozens of times faster than the native processes. You have no chance to slow down forum using wpForo Cache, this is also a wrong theory. This may be right if you have millions of files in the same cache folder, but as I've already mentioned above  the number of files is about 100 and in very rare cases up to 1000. wpForo Cache keeps scanning and cleaning up cache files and folders.

If you have any issue with update, just navigation to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard administration page and click on Delete all caches button.

Also make sure you don't have copy of wpForo template in WP theme folder. 

And if you have cache plugin, delete all cache.

In any case I'd also recommend navigate to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks and click on [ update options ] button.

Thank you @Robert for the explanation.
