Hey Everyone,
I installed W3 total cache and signed up with Amazon Cloudfront (CDN) over the weekend.
The site is somewhat faster, but I'm seeing weirdness in the wordpress dashboard.
Sometime I can't reply to comments – the options aren't there. Sometime I also can't edit old posts.
Not really sure what is causing this problem.
Does anyone use W3 total cache? Or should I change to another caching plugin…
Something also messed up Digg digg (the social media sharing buttons on the sidebar.) So I added them in thesis instead and now I can't figure out how to make them float…
Ugh…
Thanks for your help!!!

I use W3 on some of my sites, it can be very temperamental if the settings are not perfect or if the .htaccess is out of sync.
This is what my host told me to do for settings:
For the sites using W3 Total Cache, please configure the following recommended W3 Total Cache settings:
Enable Page Cache, Minify, and Browser Cache in the plugin's settings for the best performance.
Database and Object Cache should not be enabled. They decrease performance when cached to disk.
Also, be sure to disable Preview Mode, or the caching mechanism will not be enabled.

Joe – W3RC is very powerful, and it is a great combo with Cloudfront.
I'm using the same thing and am very happy with it. However, I have experienced the same problems at different times, because it is finicky.
I currently have page cache and browser cache enabled. I was having trouble with minify and the load time using it was a minimal change from the current load time (thanks Thesis), so I leave it disabled.
I keep the CDN enabled and it works well!

Thanks for the tips. I set it as recommended.

Do one at a time. Uncheck CDN and then try, if abnormality continues then its some settings on W3TC. I have W3tc and cloudflare and don't have a problem. i cna share my w3TC with you once I am at home if you like.

I disabled minify, database, and object cache. This seems to do the trick and the dashboard is ok for now.
Thanks guys.
