RSS does not update when I include it (6 posts)

    Hi there,

    I am using an RSS multi-feed, which you can see here: http://theworldblog.org/wpmu-feed/ (don't remove trailing slash). It updates fine. I am parsing it to http://theworldblog.org/wp-content/plugins/test_donotneed.php

    Both of these files update immediately once I make a new post, delete a post, etc. However, when I include the /test_donotneed.php file, it shows a really old version, and takes a long time (up to an hour) for it to show the updated file. I don't understand how test_donotneed.php looks fine, but when I include it in another file (the index.php template), it shows an older, cached(?) version.

    Thanks.

    Update: when I include the test_donotneed.php file using <?php include(); ?>, it loads an OLD version of it. However, if I use an <iframe>, it works fine. I'd rather not use an iframe though.

    Recap: my feed reader script updates automatically. BUT when I include that page anywhere using include(), it loads an older version of the feed.

    Please anybody, any ideas?

    Got any caches running? Check in the db for caching as well.

    Thanks for the response andrea. All I know is I have this wp object cache running. I also have a "cache" folder in wp-content and in wp-content/mu-plugins. I am not sure how to go about checking the db for caching, though?

    Did you look in the cache folders and empty them?
