Shopping cart not updating unless you change page

-- HikaShop version -- : Business 2.6.4 [1610260900]
-- Joomla version -- : 3.6.4 Stable
-- PHP version -- : 7.0.3

Hi

I had a similar issue before, to which you advised that I check the cache and remove the additional cart on the page (i.e. only have one cart on the page). That solved the problem previously, but the problem has resurfaced and I can not locate where the issue lies.

When you add a product, and look at the shopping cart, there is nothing added. When you go to another page and look at the shopping cart, the product then does show. If you go to a page previously viewed, the cart show the state it was in before.

I have tried this wth both Cache OFF and also on CONSERVATIVE (recommend previously by you) and in both cases cleared the site and browser changes and relaunched the browser before testing. Both times the same scenario occurs.

Please can you advise and this site is now live and this is a vital part of the shopping experience.

Thanks for your reply Nicolas

What occurred here is something you may want to place in your documentation.

It turns out that it is nothing to do with the Joomla caching at all (we did not have a plugin for caching) but to do with PHP running Varnish cache, which we had switched off, but when we switch to the live domain, it was back on as we now understand that it runs by domain and not the site it is running.

Thank you again for taking the time to reply.

Best wishes for the new year ahead

Thank you for taking the time Nicolas
