Wordpress LScache Plugin: Cant get exclude to work
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hello, i have wpforo forums in my website and when i activate Litespeed cache the forums stops working. Deactivating litespeed makes the forums work but site speed worse. Im trying to exclude forums but its not working and i dont understand why. Any ideas what i might be missing? slug is forum and the forum path is website/forum/ and ive tried excluding forum/, /forum/, /forum/ , forum/ but nothing seems to work Hi, Have you tried forum in Do not Cache URI ? If that still not working , please provide the report number Best regards, Tried to put forum in excludes do not cache URIs but still not working. Now i have forum forum/ forum/ /forum/ /forum/ But still not working.. Im so lost about what im doing wrong Hi, If you check in HTTP response header, do you see x-litespeed-cache header in forum page ? and if so , what is the value of it ? Best regards, https://gyazo.com/76be07b1726808992d8d8b02febf42d6 https://gyazo.com/74a5f2b59296ce77fe81ffb22405c18f Links are to gyazo, took some pictures. Does these give the info you need? Hi, https://gyazo.com/74a5f2b59296ce77fe81ffb22405c18f this one , yes , the second from bottom , x-litespeed-cache: no-cache this means that page is NOT being cached by LiteSpeed Best regards, Oh okay? So the exclude IS working but some setting or something is making the forum acting weird. I watched some tutorial how to make litespeed work better so i have changed some settings from the default settings. Its just weird when i deactive litespeed plugin, my forums works normally. Messages are delivered instantly and pages updating normally etc but instantly when i activte litespeed everything gets messed up. Cant delete messages, messages taked ages to send or the message box wont even load. Any idea could it be some setting whats doing that? Weird tho how its possible if its not even caching the site. Mby some setting about logged in users or something? So yeah i have been testing my forums and yes the exclude works but i still ahve problem when litespeed plugin is activated, the forum message box wont load, just has spinning load icon and when i deactive litespeed it works normally. Im not sure anymore where i should ask help for this or what setting is doing that, is it in wpforo settings or litespeed. Asked help from wpfro forums too but havent gotten any help yet. Hi, You can try further exclude the forum page to be optimized, maybe some options in optimization breaks it Best regards, Soo further excluding means i type the forum like tha4 in the pic without slashes? yeah well , actually with / it also works , but you didnt notice I guess there are 2 excludes, 1 is for excluding from being cached, another one is for excluding from being opitmized Ahhh now i understood and it actually worked!Thank you veeeery much for your time and help!
