Incompatibility with Redis Object Cache for SVGs

    Hello,

    We have recently noticed that after activating Redis Object Cache, a very powerful technical optimization plugin, the SVG flags used in the language switcher no longer display. At first, I thought the issue was caused by Redis Object Cache, but according to its author, it is more likely related to Polylang or Connect Polylang for Elementor.

    I am attaching the support request I sent to Redis Object Cache as well as the developer’s reply :
    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/svg-flags-from-language-plugin-are-not-loading/#new-topic-0

    When Redis Object Cache is enabled, the SVGs fail to load.

    When the cache is disabled, the flags display correctly again.

    Additional information:

    • WordPress version: 6.8.2
    • Plugin version: 2.6.5
    • PHP version: 8.1.33
    • Connect Polylang for Elementor: 2.5.0
    • Polylang Pro: 3.7.3

    Thanks,

    Have you tried disabling the cache for the Language switcher widget in Elementor?

    I’m not sure if it’s a problem with Redis Cache. Connect Polylang don’t uses cache or transients for flag images. Something in your site is replacing “http” with “https” and break SVGs namespace xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"

    We have released a new version with base64 url encoded flag images to prevent any transformation. Updating it should fix the problem 😉
