Are you receiving any error or notice which makes you believe it do not work properly?

On my forum when I make new posts or threads the only way for them to show up is if I clear my cache every so often

Consider googling your caching plugin name (if you use some addon/plugin for caching) and add words like: cache not delete, cache not cleared
You can also setup cronjob to clear selected cache files for you like every hour or more often as you wish.

I do not use any caching plugins

Try altering the type of cache used in the config file if its not set to DB.

*  If you wish to use the file system (cache/ directory), MemCache or eAccelerator
 *  you can change the value below to 'files', 'memcache' or 'eaccelerator' from 'db'.
 */

$config['cache_store'] = 'db';

Failing that you will need to check what caching the server is using & add a php no cache header for it in latest posts file.


Something like this after <?php

header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");

I do not know how to do that

If the user above you advice to edit config file , you need to google your forum script name and phrase: config file
it will give you more info on where to find that file on your hosting.

This is most likely not related to the hosting company.

It may not be a hosting company issue, that is true.

Using a plugin like Super cache can solve that problem. In my opinion, using shared hosting on a forum, or other website types is not a great idea. Less secure data, and especially the ads will annoy visitors so much.
