magento 1.9.x / turpentine 0.7.10 / Varnish 4.x - block inside cms page not flushing

Question

I am trying to flush a cms block I have added to a page as seen in the picture below.

Now I have put the code on the last screen inside the cms page under the "design" tab. and in the turpentine_esi.xml. None of them seem to be working.

I am flushing with a custom flush event "car_select" that is working since it flushes other references perfectly. What am I missing, or what am I doing wrong? If so sorry and please provide a link.

Answer 1

There is no way to invalidate the cache inside a cms page. So cache entire cms block or don't cache it at all..

Answer 2

Please add below code in your Page.xml or varnish layout file.

<cms_index_index>
    <reference name="carfitment">
        <action method="setEsiOptions">
            <params>
                <access>private</access>
                <scope>page</scope>
                <ttl>0</ttl>
            </params>
        </action>
    </reference>
</cms_index_index>

Add below code in cms block design and other code from it

<reference name="content">
    <block type="core/template" name="carfitment" as="carfitment" template="showoff/fitment/index.phtml" />
</reference>

Save cms page and try to refresh varnish cache.

I Hope it will help you.
