Login and Logout Errors from Cache Settings Conflict with Cloudflare

The user directory is only updated once a day (except for “today”, which is updated once per hour). Looking at the “Last Updated” time, I am not surprised that you aren’t in that list now.

Thanks @Moin you are right…

Still in Brave browser, I refresh the page many times and am (correctly) still showing as logged in.

Then, I click the Logout button, but I still remain Logged in, even after subsequent browser “Hard Reload”, as well as then “Empty Cache and and Hard Reload”…

Next I click the Users menu item, and see this…

I think the Cloudflare errors are more concerning. Maybe caching is misconfigured, so it mixes up sessions between users.

Thank you for your suggestion. I will debug the Cloudflare settings. As a user from Mainland China, my domain is hosted on Cloudflare, and I use its CDN and DNS services. I also utilize some of its security configurations and network acceleration services. I am not sure which of these might be causing the issue, so I will try to reconfigure them.

Thank you for helping me locate the source of the error!!Indeed, it was due to a conflict between Cloudflare’s cache settings and the cache settings of my server management panel, 1Panel. After I turned off the cache switch in the 1Panel server management panel, my website returned to normal. I had installed the Linux server management panel 1Panel and configured a reverse proxy for my website within it, also enabling the website’s cache switch, which led to a series of errors. Now that I have turned off the switch, everything is back to normal. I am extremely grateful for your patience! Without your help, I really wouldn’t have known where to start in diagnosing and resolving this issue!!! The Discourse community is truly one of the friendliest communities out there!! I believe that with the support of enthusiasts like you, it will become the most popular forum framework in the world! :slightly_smiling_face:

I agree that the Discourse community is unmatched in its awesomeness!

I have re-checked from my end, and everything seems to be working on your site now.

This is all thanks to your help! I believe it was caused by a caching error. By reviewing my actions before and after migrating the server, and following your patient guidance and suggestions, I was finally able to pinpoint the issue and resolve it. Wishing you a joyful life —greetings from across the ocean! :slightly_smiling_face:
