In Safari all works fine. However, if anything else is used, when you add an item to the cart, and then “View Cart” the cart is empty.

Hi there,

I can see you are using WPEngine to host the site, have you contacted them to exclude EE’s critical pages from their server side caching?

We have details on this here:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/setup-wpengine-hosting-event-espresso/

I’m assuming you are logging in when testing on Safari but not the other browser(s)?

I’ve already had WPEngine follow your instructions for caching.
The site is running:
Event Espresso 4.10.8
Attendee Mover 1.0.5
MER – Multi Event Registration 2.0.18
Promotions 1.0.15
Wait Lists 1.0.2
WP Users 2.0.17

I did, yes. They even turned off caching for entire site and it still didn’t remedy.
Yes, was logged in w/ Safari and not others. Just logged out of safari and tried and it continues to work in Safari.

I don’t use Safari so I can’t test myself but I asked a member of the team to check into this, they get ‘Nothing in your event queue’ with Safari.

However, now when I test adding a registration in Chrome it’s working as expected.

Whenever we see the “Nothing in your Event Queue” error it’s because something is resetting the PHP session. Generally, it’s caching but it could be also a plugin clearing transients on the site.

Is this a recent change and if so, have you installed any new plugins?

I can see you’re using ClourFlare caching, have you excluded EE’s pages from that?

Just tried the following in CloudFlare:
Added http://www.register.sheptin.com/* to bypass all, no change.
Turned off the proxy as well to see if this is causing the problem, no change.
Purged the cache for the subdomain as well.

I also copied the site over to a different host – Flywheel. Exact same issues. Also removed all other plugins except EE and MER – Multi Event Registration and still have this issue.

You’re using a naked domain but above you have www, is that a typo as the above wont change anything as is?

If not then it’s very strange. Something is definately preventing session from maintaining state on your site and if you’ve already excluded EE’s pages from WP Engines cache it only leaves cloudflare.

When you copied the site over to FlyWheel was that using a temp domain?

Are you working on the site currently?

For some of my requests I’m getting this:

This site can’t provide a secure connection register.sheptin.com uses an unsupported protocol.
ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

Then others it’s working again.

When it’s working I can get through to the checkout using Chrome without a problem now:

It was the theme! I was using Enfold for years, but now it snapped. Switched to Divi and all browsers on mac now work. However, I just heard from client that people still can’t register. Waiting to get more info.
