# Important: Changed profiles clear their cached pages {#important-ace-828-academic-persons}

## Description {#description}

The profile list tags its cached page with `profile_list_view`, the profile
detail with `profile_detail_view_<uid>`. The uid is the one of the profile in
the default language, for a translated profile as well. Until now these tags
were cleared only when a profile was saved in the backend. In three cases a
page kept showing the old state until its cache expired or was cleared by hand:

-   A profile created in the backend, a translation of a profile included,
    cleared no tag. A new profile was missing from the cached lists.
-   A translation saved in the backend cleared the detail tag of its own uid,
    which no page carries, instead of the one of its default language profile.
-   A record written through Extbase rather than through the DataHandler
    cleared no tag. That is every change made with the profile editor of
    `EXT:academic_persons_edit`, every profile written by
    `academic:createprofiles` and `academic:updateprofiles`, and
    every write of own code through the repositories of this extension.

A profile created or saved in the backend now clears the list tag and its
detail tag, and a translation clears the detail tag of its default language
profile as well. A listener of the Extbase persistence events clears the same
tags whenever a profile, a contract, a profile information, a physical address,
an email address, a phone number or a file reference of a profile is added,
changed or removed through Extbase. Other records are left alone.

## Impact {#impact}

Pages with the **Persons List**, **Persons Detail** or
**Persons List and Detail** plugin show a change as soon as it is
saved, wherever it was made.

The **Profile Card**, **Profiles: Selected Profiles** and
**Profiles: Selected Contracts** plugins set none of these tags, and
this change does not clear their pages.

A command or an import that writes many of these records through Extbase
clears the tags once per written record. The pages carrying them are rendered
again on their next request.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

Every installation that renders the profile list or detail on cached pages.
Nothing has to be done on update. A scheduler task, a short cache lifetime or
a `TCEMAIN.clearCacheCmd` that was set up only to work around stale
profile lists or detail pages can be removed.
