[NSFW] How do I know it’s working?

To check if plugin is working check HTTP headers of the main codument. Press F12 key to open developer console in browser. Select network tab and click on the first entry in the list of requests. This should be the request of main codument. Click it and you will see all headers in a new “window”. Look for “x-litespeed-cache” header. The value should be “hit”, if page is already cached. If it is “miss, reload the page and ceck again. In your case something prevents caching URLs, because x-litespeed-cache header is always “no-cache”, so check if plugin is enabled or settings in plugin prevents caching.

Hi, thank you for your reply.
I have enabled the plugin both on the server side and on my website. I flushed all cache both on site and server, and it still shows: no cache.

I ran a debug log, but I don’t see any hint to what the problem could be?

X Cache_control -> no Cache ( wp polls )

that “wp poll” plugin is calling page no-cache in order to showing a live poll result

Thank you for the reply!
I deactivated the wp-polls plugin and it gives me a “hit” now. But I would like to keep the plugin and the polls also.

Is there any exception or rules I can put in the LScache settings to make it work with WPpolls, whether by caching the results of the poll, or by caching all on the page except for the polls?

When the polls plugin is activated does it prevent it from caching the whole page, or is it caching everything else anyway?

Thanks!

I don’t have good solution to this case

maybe you can try different poll plugin

one thing you can try , that will cache the vote result is edit file https://github.com/litespeedtech/lscache_wp/blob/master/thirdparty/entry.inc.php

remove the line 'Wp_Polls', , then it will make the page cache

Hi,
Thank you for your help!
I removed the line WP_Polls and now the pages are caching. Basically what did we do? Does it mean that now the whole site is caching except for the polls?

Another quick question, why in Inspect > Network it shows: cache control: no-cache, and then below it says litespeed cache, hit?

Is it 2 different types of caches? ????

cache-control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0
.
.
.
server: LiteSpeed
x-litespeed-cache: hit,private
x-powered-by: PHP/7.4.27

yes, first one is the browser cache , and that is the default wordpress value and you should keep it that way

the second is LSCache status.

Thanks, so everything is caching now, except for the polls.

(I didn’t know if your “yes” was to my first or second question).

Please let me know, I just want a confirmation from you to be 100% clear ??

this should be more clear with quotes : )

Thank you very much!
