Hello guys, So I tried to use clearCache() in my app to clear all cached views whenever reaching a specific state. I tried with a function when the button leading to that state is clicked : $scope.switchEvent = function() { $ionicHistory.clearCache(); $state.go("welcome"); } That call wa…

@seanhill @cquartier I’m also seeing this issue on beta 14 and beta.14-nightly-1060. My app is based off ionic-starter-tabs. I have 4 tab states and a separate state for login. I’m calling $ionicHistory.clearCache() and $ionicHistory.clearHistory() from a controller within one of the tabs. For me, …

@mhartington When you have cached views enabled, the controller does not run again. even if you clear cache with $ionicHistory.clearCache(); I think it is clearly a bug. I hope it helps :wink:

I was able to work around my problem case by calling $ionicHistory.clearCache() and $ionicHistory.clearHistory() on logout AND login. When the user logs out from the settings page and gets taken to the login page, the settings page is still cached. When another user logs in I clear cache again whic…

@bostondv thanks for suggestion

Hi everyone. Is there any solution for this problem? I also cant clear cache by $ionicHistory.clearCache();. I tried do this on user logout, then on logout AND login. Nothing changes, the page on which the user appears after login still show cached data. Any suggestions?

Hi! I don’t think it will help you, but I deactivated completely the cache. As long as there are so many people that don’t understand how it’s said to work, and it’s not doing things logically, as far as I’m concerned it’s not production ready. Good luck!

[image] bostondv: $ionicHistory.clearCache() It seems $ionicHistory.clearCache() does not work alone. I have to combine $ionicHistory.clearCache() and $ionicHistory.clearHistory() to make it work.

Have this issue been fixed? Because i’m using ionic 1.0.0 and when i use clearCache() i think it clears other views except the current view. Could you suggest me any trick to deal with it?

We can try this: $scope.logout = function() { $state.go('...'); // Clear all cache and history $timeout(function () { $ionicHistory.clearCache(); $ionicHistory.clearHistory(); }, 1500) } Note: Remember include $timeout and $state in controller options
