It's happened again. It's now saying the last post was October 19, 2020, 05:14:50 PM.

There is no built-in caching system implemented on the server itself?

--- End quote ---
I don't have access to that, so I asked the host. Their reply was: "As for the Apache logs, I have found some entries related to our web application firewall - ModSecurity. It is a server-side security system that is designed to block known exploits and provide protection from a range of attacks against web applications. However, in some cases these blocks are false-positive."

It doesn't seem so.

shawnb61:
I would look at your SMF cache settings.  If anything is on, try disabling it for a period, as a test to rule it out.

I suspect the mod_security errors in the logs are more likely related.  Ask them to turn it off.  Mod_security frequently interferes with regular SMF operation.

Illori:
Are stats enabled? I think this is still an option in 2.1.

I contacted the host again and it turns out that there was a block on index.php. This has now been whitelisted and the latest post is being displayed correctly. I'll mark this as solved.

Thanks for following up!
