CACHE - mobile version being served to PC after cache

When using Joomla's cache, the mobile version of the site is served up to non-mobile browsers. This is the same issue I had with the PDA plugin. Clearing the cache totally solves the problem, until 15 minutes later when the site caches the mobile version again.

Here is the workflow I used to recreate this issue:
1. Login with an iPod - browse around a bit and leave it logged in
2. Then, login with Firefox on a PC with the User Agent extension installed, set to Blackberry 8703. Browse around a bit.
3. Login with Safari on a Mac ***so far, everything is fine**
4. Wait 15 minutes
5. Go to yet another PC and startup Firefox AND Chrome.
6. Go to the site with both browsers
7. Watch both PC browsers get served up the mobile template

To fix the problem: (again, I can recreate this every time)
Login to Joomla admin area
Go to TOOLS - Clean Cache
Select all the cache files and delete them
Go back to the PC running Firefox and Chrome and refresh the page in both browsers
The right template is displayed



(system Plugin Cache ENABLED - Also in Global Config, Cache set to YES, 15 mins and FILE)
(User agent checking set to WURFL)
Joomla 1.5.14
PHP 5.2.8

MobileJoomla works well with core caching (Global Config), but there is problem with System-Cache plugin. So, just disable System-Cache plugin.

Disable it forever? Or is this issue going to be addressed?

Hi,

Currently MobileJoomla doesn't work with System caching plugin. In the future we might implement caching to MobileJoomla.

Since cache seems to be a big issue with a lot of "mobile" Joomla solutions, I think you should make that VERY clear in your documentation/wiki.

This is too bad. I have a client that would like to use your extension but has decided not to due to this issue. Compatibility with the System caching plugin would be a huge advantage, in my opinion. I hope that you can do this.

Best,

Matt

Still not working for me. I'm using Joomla 1.5 with Mobile Joomla 1.0 RC5.
When I access site via mobile device I get the default version, If I disable system cache It works.
