Support browser cache page exceptions

    Hi,

    I would like to prevent the browser caching certain pages. I understand that your plugin does not support that.

    Woocommerce (and likely many others) provide a member/non-member view of the same page via individual block elements. The problem here is that a member would see the non-member content until the browser cache expired (default 3600s) should they visit the same page before logging in.

    Please would you either add the capability to provide a page exception list, or alternatively, indicate how to override this behaviour via filter/function etc.

    Thank you

    Hello @nickwp161

    Thank you for your suggestion and I am happy to assist you with this.
    No, W3 Total Cache does not support this. What you are using is to disable BC rules set globally on a specific page which cannot be done with W3TC. In the case you are mentioning, yes it’s recommended to disable the expires header in Performance>Broser Cache>HTML&XML. So you should keep that option disabled.
    Thanks!

    Hi Marko,

    Thank you for your reply.

    Is there a recommended way to override this behaviour. There are standard pages for which the last-modified does not appear (e.g. my-account), so I was wondering if you might indicate the appropriate function(s) that bypass this?

    Thanks

    Nick

    Hello @nickwp161

    No, unfortunately, disabling the mentioned option is the only way.
    Thanks!
