[SOLVED] Clearing Inappbrowser cache in Cordova

Clearing Inappbrowser cache in Cordova

We have an iOS and Android application that uses Inappbrowser which calls a website, here is the code:

<script>
        document.addEventListener('deviceready', function(){
          cordova.InAppBrowser.open('https://www.canassonandco.com/canasson/rider/wall', '_blank', 'location=no,toolbar=no,zoom=no');
        }
        );
    </script>

If we make CSS or other changes on the website, these changes are not always taken into account immediately, we have to clear the application's cache in the Android or iOS settings. Not all users can do this, these changes must be automatic.

If I add : clearsessioncache=yes,clearcache=yes, will it work ? Or do we have to do it differently?

Solution

If it does not work, you could always put a revision date on your link to your CSS file on your website, to make sure the old version is replaced

 <link href="index.css?v=2022-05-05" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
