Any problems with WP Super Cache and GF?

  1. I just wanted to check about any conflicts or problems between WP Super Cache and GF? I know that in W3 you need to disable caching of the GF database but there's no option for that in wp super cache - do I need to worry about that or is it a non-issue?

    Thank you!

  2. That will likely be an issue with form submissions. Test first before you deploy in a production environment.

  3. Do you know how I can prevent form pages from being cached with WP Super Cache? I've looked and unfortunately, I cant find it...

  4. I'm not familiar with the configuration on WPSC.. However, Google brought up a couple results:

    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-super-cache-how-to-stop-caching-of-one-single-page
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-super-cache-how-to-keep-shopping-cart-dynamic

    The constant "DONOTCACHEPAGE" seems to be a promising way to do it.

  5. Actually (contradicting the admin response above) I don't think there is a problem with form submissions. WP Super Cache excludes serving the cached page on POST requests and that's what all gravity forms use.

    I'm using the mod_rewrite caching option and that puts RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !POST into each clause of the htaccess rewrite rules.

    Can an admin please clarify the actual situation?

  6. @CreativeInfusion, are you having a problem with something on your Gravity Forms or are you just looking for clarification and the correct answer here? I may have given incorrect information as I have no familiarity with WPSC configuration. I've seen issues with caching plugins in the past and was trying to caution against that. It's possible there is no conflict at all, but I am wondering if you are having an issue with how you have things configured.
