BUG: Configuring menu visibility

[GregPicFlick]

Hi,
I am experiencing the weirdest issue when configuring the visibility of menus...

I've configured 2 menus:

• Login for 'logged out users'
• Logout for 'logged in users' + setting the roles.

When I login to the website, the 'login' menu still appears. I then go to WPAdmin>>Appearance>>Menus and simply click 'save' (i.e. not changing anything), refresh my test page, and then it works! the Logout menu appears.

Please can you urgently fix this!!

Hi @GregPicFlick ,

We've seen this happen when people use a cache plugin, server cache (from your hoster), database cache (advanced techniques), and even a CDN cache. In general, pages on your site that have "login/logout" features or logged-in sessions should not be cached.

For example, this doc from WP Rocket lists the main problems with caching logged-in pages.

https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/313-user-cache

Let's first test if this is a common cache problem for logged-in sessions. Please do the following:

1. Temporarily turn off ALL your caching (yep, all caching)
2. Bring up your site in a brand new incognito browser with extensions turned off

After that, describe your test steps and results to us using the link below. The GitHub issues are for confirmed bugs (peer-reviewed and peer-tested).

Again, please follow up with us using the contact form.

Thanks so much!

P.S. We also saw your post on the forum, but you added your issue to an "unrelated" thread. It's better practice to open a new thread for a "new" or different issue.
