Hello,
the main page of my blog looks like this:
http://prntscr.com/m2rsje

The blog posts on the top are always the same when you refresh the site.
How can I setup, that there are always random blog posts?

It used to be that way, but its just changed and now there are always
the same blog posts showing.

Hi,

You should change the sort order from Block Settings to be Random. Please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/

Thanks for your understanding!

Hey Catalin,
I need to update the Visual Composer Plugin I think.
I found the documentation for “How to update it”

Where can I download the theme I bought?
If im right, the newest Version of the Composer Plugin is in this file right?

So I need to download it and then upload it.

Hi,

Yes, you should download the theme and then, update it via FTP way. You have to download the latest version of the theme from your Theme Forest account.

Thanks for the message!

Thank you.
I updated the Plugin.
The Sort order was already on random.
I changed it to something else and then back to “random”.

It still shows the same posts.

But I found out, that when I clear the cache, new posts show up. But only when I clear the catch everytime.
So I think the problem is, that the cache is saving the posts that get showed on the big grid.

How can I change that? It used to be okay, I didnt really change anything or installed new plugins, which could affect that. But now its that way, that everytime I refresh the site, the same posts appear.

Hi,

You are using an untested cache plugin. Please only use wp super cache and these settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/

But the problem is still the same.

Hi,

A random sort may indeed be affected by caching. While logged in users will not be served cached pages, for others this will happen.
A solution would be to set a small expiration period of time before the cache expires
