Checkboxes don't show in facets for anonymous users when block cache is enabled.

This is probably because the javascript that converts the links to checkboxes is added in the block rendering logic which is not executed when the block is cached. Therefore it is not added when the data is cached.

Thanks for posting,

Looks like the technique at http://www.jaypan.com/tutorial/adding-css-and-js-cached-block-drupal-7 should fix the issue.

The attached patch moved the JS including into an #attached property.

Re-thinking location of the #attached so it is in the base widget class.

Bumping to first page.

#4: checkboxes-with-cache-1621034-4.patch queued for re-testing.

Committed to 7.x version of Facet API.

• http://drupalcode.org/project/facetapi.git/commit/ed38b53 (7.x-1.x)
• http://drupalcode.org/project/facetapi.git/commit/19183c3 (7.x-2.x)

I still have this problem. To solve it, I changed the line of code in adapter.inc from:

  drupal_add_js($merge_settings, 'setting');

to:

  $build['#attached']['js'][] = array(
    'data' => $merge_settings,
    'type' => 'setting',
  );

It works for me perfectly.

I confirm this bug (also reproduce it).
Solution from comment #9 works fine for me.
It also fix issue with soft limit show/hide link disappearing when block cache is enabled.
Thank You CSoft!

This works for me too.

The code from #9 turned into a patch. There are probably other drupal_add_js() calls, and some drupal_add_css_() calls that need fixing, this should do for now.

I had the same issue and patch #12 fixed the problem.

I found a problem with CSS as well and attach a extended patch that takes care of that as well.

same problem and #13 works for me

Strange, but I cannot reproduce this problem. Maybe it's not actual? I've checked it with the dev version.

@eugene.ilyin: For me patch #13 (thank you!) is still needed even with the latest dev version. Here's what I'm doing to recreate the problem:

1. On /admin/config/development/performance turn on Drupal's block caching.
2. On /admin/config/search/search_api/index/.../facets under "Block cache settings" on the "Facets" tab, select "Per role". (depending on your site, this patch might be needed: https://www.drupal.org/node/2657774)
3. On each facet configuration, choose a "Display widget" of "Links with checkboxes"
4. Log out of Drupal
5. Load the search page - note that the checkboxes do appear next to facet items
6. Re-load the page - the checkboxes do not appear

So the javascript gets loaded the first time, but not successive times - which makes sense if the javascript is not added with '#attached' and the block has been cached.

Attached an update of patch #13 with line numbers compatible to version 1.5+30-dev.

Fixed as of 7.x-1.6 - see https://www.drupal.org/project/facetapi/issues/3057283
