Conflicts with W3 Total Cache

    Hi there. Was using your plugin and noticed when your plugin is enabled and at least 1 security option is “on” then w3tc no longer is able to cache a page when disk enhanced is used. Meaning, when i visit any page it seems to serve back the page but it doesn’t cache it to disk..essentially always returning back a fresh, uncached page, each time.

    Any ideas why that could happen?

    I’m also curious why you don’t have a feature that allows settings to be written directly to the htaccess file (or nginx config)…doing so would solve the w3tc and other caching plugin issue.

    For example you’d write the following to htaccess:

    Header set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block"
Header always append X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN
Header set X-Content-Type-Options nosniff

    Never mind…i added the feature into W3TC making this plugin now irrelevant.

    Hi Kimberly (@amiga500),
    I’m searching in W3TC where I can put the security headers like X-XSS-Protection etc.
    Writing them in the functions.php I experienced that W3TC discard all them after the first chaching ??

    Please can you show me how you “i added the feature into W3TC” ?

    Thanks a lot !

    This plugin has issues with caching or the other way round. WP Super Cache enabled also causes problems.

    I have to delete the cache all the time to check the headers results or otherwise it tells me they aren’t set. Negative results don’t help if they are set.

    It’s either this plugin or WP Super Cache or other caching plugins and I wish it could be sorted out. But then without caching I get the results I expect from what I set up in this plugin.

    Thanks

    Colin.
