How can I prevent W3TC adding a query string for a specific file?

    I have a bit of an odd problem. I need to have “Prevent caching of objects after settings change” enabled, because I’m using Google PageSpeed Service, but one script in particular (called directly inside a template file) needs to not have a query string on it.

    I can’t seem to find a way to prevent W3TC from adding a query string to just this script.

  • I have the same problem with Google Tag Manager as I describe here.

    As long as W3TC keeps messing up the link to GTM I can’t activate mthe “Prevet caching of objects after settings change” feature, which I would very much like so that the CDN will update and pull a new file if a media library item is updated.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    OK I got it to work. I put the js script html in a separate php file, then used the mclude directive to load it.

    My solution with the google tag manager code was to modify the google script slightly so that W3TC didn’t recognize a path to a .js file.

    I changed this: j.src='//www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;

    to this: j.src='//www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.'+'js?id='+i+dl;

    And then W3TC doesn’t try and append it’s querystring right after the id= and mess up the GTM ID necessary to call the script for our account.
