Hello Marko,

I removed the W3TC segments.

When I enable Page Cache and “Save and Purge”, there is no change to the .htaccess file.

I tried this multiple times. When I enable CDN and/or Browser Cache, the relevant segments are added to the .htaccess file.

When I enable Page Cache, nothing changes in .htaccess (but the problems with the page that I mentioned before happen).

What can I try next?

Hi Marko,

I did the test you suggested.

All caches in General Settings off, except for the Page Cache, and had the same result. Once I disable Page Cache, the blog pages are back to normal.

Kind regards,

Peter

Hi Marco,

I am using W3 Total Cache exclusively for caching purposes (I used to use WP Rocket, which is disabled). I have taken care to turn of minification in the theme plugin.

I am using Cloudways as the host, with things like memcache and Varnish services turned on.

The problem disappears when I turn off Page Cache.

I will try your suggestion (“Does the issue persist if you disable all other options in W3 Total Cache Performance>General settings except Page cache?”) in the next couple of days and get back to you with the result.

I include my .htaccess file below.

Thank you for your help,

Peter

.htaccess follows…….
