<p>Based on the code you posted on pastebin, it seems like the problem is that you have your pagination outside of the cache tags (assuming this was the case when you had caching implemented).

<pre><code>{% cache globally using key craft.request.path ~ '/p' ~ craft.request.getPageNum for 2 hours %}

        {#  lots of code to get topicEntries #}

        {% paginate topicEntries.limit(10) as pageInfo, topicEntries %}

        {% for topic in topicEntries %}
            {# code that outputs list items #}
        {% endfor %}
    &lt;/ul&gt;

    {% include "_includes/pagination" %}
{% endcache %}
</code></pre>

This appears to be working, however when I add a new entry to the section, the cache is not broken and new entries do not display.

First of all, is your code actually `{% paginate topicEntries.limit(10)as pageInfo, topicEntries %}`? If so, you're missing a space between `limit(10)` and `as`. Guessing that's just an error here on SE, since that'd give you some other error. Also, I suspect that there are some code that accesses `pageInfo` that's outside of the code that's shown here? If `pageInfo` is created inside the cache tag, you can't access it outside. Seeing the rest of your template code would be useful.

Cache and Pagination not working
# Cache and Pagination not working

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-04-06)

I'm trying to get pagination and cache to work together but it's failing.
Here's my current code:
{% cache globally using key
   craft.request.path ~ '/p' ~ craft.request.getPageNum
   for 2 hours %}

{% paginate topicEntries.limit(10)as pageInfo, topicEntries %}

  {% for topic in topicEntries %}

      more code here

  {% endfor %}

{% endcache %

When I use this I get a template error that Variable pageInfo does not exist.
Then if I put the opening cache tag below the paginate tag. The first page shows 10 entries, but each page after that only displays 1 entry per page.
{% paginate topicEntries.limit(10)as pageInfo, topicEntries %}
 {% cache globally using key
    craft.request.path ~ '/p' ~ craft.request.getPageNum
    for 2 hours %}

  {% for topic in topicEntries %}

      more code here

  {% endfor %}

{% endcache %}

What I need to know is how to cache paginated entries so it's 10 per page and when a new entry is added the cache is cleared correctly.
Please advise.
