Hey there, I'm using boost + uc_ajax_cart, all is fine but after reloading the page, the cart become empty. Is there any solution to that?

You might consider using authcache and this UC contrib: http://www.ubercart.org/contrib/13521

Also take a look and see if this issue helps: #679422-6: hook_exit() causes Ubercart "Add to Cart" to fail

Try 2.0-beta1 Version. And remove following paths from caching by boost:

uc_ajax_cart
uc_ajax_cart/*

Should work.

"And remove following paths from caching by boost:"

How do you do that?
Thanks.

I think you do that by adding the paths to the Boost "ignore these paths" settings field.

#4 Correct ;- )

Sorry to sound like a total noob, but do you mean this section of the Boost settings?
"Statically cache specific pages: Cache every page except the listed pages."

Thanks again!

Erik Seifert’s picture

Yes ;- )

admin/settings/performance/boost

Statically cache specific pages: Cache every page except the listed pages

Now add these lines in the textarea below

uc_ajax_cart
uc_ajax_cart/*

Caching for anonymous users using my shopping cart still doesn't work.
:'(

Is there a work around for Boost + Ubercart? Or can you please suggest a caching module that will work with anonymous shoppers?

Thank you, erikseifert!

Do you have the correct version ? ( uc_ajax_cart 2.* ) . You must also update your .htaccess file with boost settings.

Yes, I have the correct version and also I have made the necessary additions to the .htaccess file in my installation folder. :X

Have you looked at the (sort of longish now) thread in my original reply?#679422-6: hook_exit() causes Ubercart "Add to Cart" to fail - It sounds like your issue might be the same thing I was having before, although I'm pretty sure the latest Ubercart-6.x-2.x fixes it. But give it a try anyway.

You'll want to read the entire thing to understand where we are with it. Could always use more people testing it.

This with the latest version of Boost works for me!

One final issue, it seems.

If you have normal caching turned off, but still have boost or similar enabled, the 'cache' variable (which is checked in uc_ajax_cart_block) will still be 0.

I think perhaps if uc_ajax_cart_cart_cached_load is enabled, it should overrule, cache.

a_c_m: What do you mean by "this"? Are you referring to the solution in #7?

I'm using Boost (6.x-1.x-dev) and Ubercart Ajax cart (6.x-2.x-dev) and I'm unable to use both modules together. I don't know if I'm using the right versions to test the solution.

Boost now has support for automatically excluding ajax pages from the cache, although it would still be worthwhile to add 'uc_ajax_cart*' as one of the excludes just in case. There is also a non-Boost related known issue with the current releases that breaks the ajax cart for anonymous users when page caching is enabled with UC 2.7+, see #1317986: Updating to Ubercart 6.x-2.7 breaks Ajax Cart. It has been resolved in the latest dev release.

Can the issue be reproduced when using the latest dev of uc_ajax_cart and the latest Boost release?
