Unable to Edit/Add Redirects

[ParksTrailsNewYork]

I am unable to edit, delete, disable, or add redirects. When the page updates, the old redirect has not been changed/the new direct has not been added.

This is a caching issue on your site. Are you using a cache of any kind?

@ParksTrailsNewYork:

On my browser, I need to delete this part of my browsing history every time on my browser: Temporary cached files and pages (. . . MB)

Deleting other things = no effect (other than logging me out)

Deleting the cache on my WordPress site through /wp-admin/ = no effect

Refreshing the screen = no effect

Going into other screens, refreshing, coming back later = partial effect

Note: Cache differs from cookies. If you can only delete cache and cookies together, then you will be logged out of sites.

Warning: Deleting the cookies will mess up YouTube settings. You will have to, again, manually disable Stable Volume (read: distorted volume, not the normalization of Spotfiy et al.) and Auto-Play. Deleting the cache alone is much safer.¹

@johngodley:

I do not know why this problem only appears on this plug-in, but it only appears with this plug-in—at least in my limited experience. I have no idea why, and the inconsistency of the behavior with your plug-in and across browsers and users will mean that this bug (if it is a bug) will not be “reproducible.”

In any case, thank you for the plug-in. Other than this (which is treatable in my experience), this plugin does amazing things clearly and efficiently.

Footnotes

1. Yes, I know that a cookie is a kind of temporary file and cache should imply everything you hold onto, but for whatever reason in computer whiz lingo, things are funny. Temporary files means non-cookie temporary files, and the cache is things other than cookies that are saved/cached. ↩
