Hi

I just installed, setup and ran cache cleaner and it has caused display errors in my easysocial toolbar notifications. So for example in the friend notifications it now displays like this with all these odd characters and doesn't display the avatars and formatting:

"\n
\n\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/i>\n\t\t\n\t\t
No friend requests currently<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>"

And in the notifications it shows this:

"\n
\n\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/i>\n\t\t\n\t\t
Awesome<\/b>! You have caught up with all other notifications and there is nothing new currently.<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>"

And in the conversations:
" \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t
<\/div>\n\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Hi Peter,

StackIdeas are asking what they need to check for in terms of cache as they haven't changed anything?

It had always worked fine with Joomla cache clearing and also Nginx on the server which I have since disabled as was causing to many other performance issues and my main reason for wanting to try your cache cleaner - particularly for purging the session table which gets bloated very quickly (Akeeba admin tools has a similar function but automation doesn't work). Yours worked great. The only other thing I did yesterday was update to latest Akeeba admin tools and backup (I disabled them to test but still same issue) so I am no closer to finding what's broken it.

Hi Peter,

it turned out to be an error with a file totally unrelated to this component or EasySocial. It was due to an added space at the top of a recently updated php file for another plugin. I thought I'd let you know in case it ever happens to anyone else.

All sorted now.

May I ask, does having the automation running ever hour slow a website down? What is the best setting? Every day? Would it be possible to set it to run at a certain time i.e. once a day at 2am? If not, where does it take the starting point from to run on the hour, day etc. As I could start it from 2am then if that's how it works.

Kind regards
