    Hello,
    I’ve a site shop based on WooCommerce with multilingual WPML and with WooCommerce Multi-Currency activated. Also, the LiteSpeed Cache Version 3.6.2 is installed and activated from 6 months ago.

    Yesterday got updates for all WPML and WooCommerce Multi-Currency plugins and after I’ve got on the Dashboard a warning related to LiteSpeed Cache that say’s:

    WooCommerce Multilingual detected and active cache plugin on your site.
    Caching may cause currency display issues for your customers if you are using multi-currency feature.
    To avoid this, set your cache plugin to not cache pages for visitors that have a cookie set in their browser.

    I’ve looked at all settings of the LiteSpeed Cache but are unable to found how to apply this setting.

    Can you please help me to set it in order to avoid this issue?

    Many thanks in advance for your help,

    Robert

    Hello,

    It uses Geolocation and the currencies are USD$ for the USA, EUR for EU countries like Spain, France, Germany and CAD$ for Canada and rest of world like Argentina.

    I’ve tested using Proton VPN to connect from these countries. However sometimes I need to clear the cache to view the right currency.

    Hello,

    Using Proton VPN I’ve been able to connect from the USA, Mexico, Argentina, UK, France, … without problems and showing the right currencies on each country, when I’ve said that sometimes I’ve needed to clear the cache I’m referring to browser cache.

    Anyway the question still is:
    Just in case I need to apply this recommendation how can I set it?
    ‘To avoid this, set your cache plugin to not cache pages for visitors that have a cookie set in their browser.’

    Hi,

    that’s the least efficient solution

    you can go to Cache -> Exclude -> Do not cache cookie , add your cookie there to prevent page cache when that cookie is present.

    but you can try this way first

    add this at top of your .htaccess

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

    then purge all , this will make cache vary on cookie value.

    Hi,

    That sounds good but my knowledge about cookies and caching is very limited, and I don’t know how or where to found the cookie name to exclude from cache or place in .htaccess file.

    The site uses multicurrency for some countries based on geolocation and the customers doesn’t have a currency switcher available to change the currency.

    Can you help me to found this cookie name

    Many thanks in advance and best regards,

    Robert

    Hi,

    okay , hold on a second , I am getting little confused right now…

    1. so I tested your site , with 2 IPs one is from US/CA , one is from ES

    the ES one shows EUR , and other one shows CAD , which I except to be USD , but that’s okay with me , because geoiplocation could mismatch

    but , on both pages, I do see the cache hit already , and I’d say it is just working as it expects , isn’t it ?

    2. I did not find cookie though , not sure which one you used to store currency

    3. I think the most optimal solution is still to use GeoIP module from server-level , but it requires help from your provider : (
