Exclude cache for EDD minicart

    Hi Folks,

    I have an EDD (Easy Digital Downloads) mini cart in the header. It displays cart items if they are saved in the edd_items_in_cart cookie. But, since the page is being cached, it displays a “Your Cart is empty” message.

    I hope you already get my problem.

    What I have done so far:

    – Excluded edd_items_in_cart cookie in LsCache > Cache > Exclude cookie. Also, added a .htaaccess rule.
    – Tried generating unix timestamp in the EDD cart container.

    `// get current date, time with seconds
    $current_date = date(‘Y-m-d H:i:s’);
    // convert current date to unix timestamp
    $current_date_unix = strtotime($current_date);`

    – Added ajax="true" & reload="1" attributes.
    – Even tried adding an attribute data-no-lazy="1" which is actually for excluding images.

    Since the page is being cached, nothing above worked. I am NOT using ESI as I am in OpenLiteSpeed & Cloudflare CDN.

    Please let me know how can I exclude cache for Mini Cart? I have also opened this issue here.

    Thank you in advance.`

    Hi,

    try add this into top of your .htaccess

    RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Vary: edd_items_in_cart]

    then purge all

    best regards,

    Hello @qtwrk

    I think this rule did work (Still testing). I have now added on the top of .htaccess file https://ibb.co/3BmQD3X

    As far I know .htaccess file is overwritten by the LsCache plugin whenever the settings are tweaked. Also, it is overwritten by other plugins like WordFence.

    Is there a way to add this .htaccess rule RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Vary:edd_items_in_cart] on the virtual host file of OpenLiteSpeed Server?

    Regards,

    it should be OLS webadmin console -> vhost -> rewrite tab

    Is this the same syntax RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Vary:edd_items_in_cart] that goes in OLS > VHost > Rewrite?

    yes

    you may need to add RewrirteEngine On before this line
