Problem rendering site

[magallo]

Hi guys, over the years i created a good number of CMSMS websites and occasionally i found out that a site would be rendering all "broken". When investigated, i would find out that the issue was that the content blocks would not be picked up.
Most of the time i would have a 'header' content block with all kind of css links or scripts.
At first i noticed that if i rename the content block, then it would be picked up again. Other times, it would work again if i clear the cache.

The problem is that i would not find out about this until the client would contact me all pissed because the site is "broken".

Do you know if this issue or do you know of a permanent solution?
thanks in advance.

It's not a known issue, and sounds unique to your setup.
Perhaps you could provide a lot more details, then maybe we'd be able to come up with some possible solutions.

I know in the past there have been some users with problems of Global Content Blocks that couldn't be found (iirc it showed a comment about that in the html page source).

There has been lots of discussion about this topic in the forum but I don't remember if there ever was found a cause/solution.

A solution could be to re-write your page templates and use template inheritance. Then you don't need the header GCB etc.

This behaviour happend in an older version of cmsms. So upgrading will probably fix this.

I was not able to find a stable solutions for this issue. Clearing the cache will temporarily fix the problem.
We are now upgrading to 2.1.4 Hopefully this will resolve the issue.
