Recently I ran into the Sitecore – Remote Cache Kick project, originally created by James Gregory. The project adds a button to the publish ribbon so users (with access) can clear the remote server caches.

The project was targeted at Sitecore 8.2, but I needed it for my project, which targets a higher version of Sitecore compared to the code that was out there.

So I started upgrading to the latest Sitecore 9 version, which was Sitecore 9.3, and it turned out there was a breaking change in terms of the way that Sitecore handles and sends remote events. In Sitecore 9 the event model has changed somewhat and events are now queued within each DB (master, core, web etc.). You can read more on it in this StackExchange post.

Where to find the new repo?

So all in all, the Sitecore – Remote Cache Kick project is now updated all the way up to Sitecore 10.2.

You can find the new repo here.

Enjoy! And remember: Happy Sitecore-ing!
