Wordpress LScache Plugin: Litespeed Cache Uninstall problem
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hi I am the designer of the page i added. Novadays i have a big problem. The main page of my website started to give error named ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS everyday. I investigated and found the reason of this problem is litespeed cache plugin. When i deactivate the plugin my webpage starts working. So i decided to uninstall it. I did but after a day i see the same problem and when i check the plugins i see litespeed cache is installed and activated by itself. So my problem is : How to uninstall this plugin properly? What did i do? : at the image optimization tab i destroyed the data and then i made purge all and then i deactivated plugin then i uninstalled. After all i reached to my .htaccess file and opened it and i deleted all the code except for these codes : # BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index .php$ ? [L] RewriteCond % REQUEST_FILENAME !-f RewriteCond % REQUEST_FILENAME !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] # END WordPress After i deleted all .htaccess_lscachebak files. BUT NOTHING CHANGES. EVERYDAY IT IS INTALLED WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. AND EVERY MORNING WHEN I OPEN THE WEBPAGE I SEE THE SAME ERROR ON MAINPAGE AND I START TO DO ALL PROCESS FROM BEGINNING. CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME ABOUT HOW TO GET RID OF THIS LITESPEED CACHE PLUGIN COMPLETELY? The page I need help with: http://tempotr.com.tr/ Hi @sinterlesme, Sounds like the plugin is automatically installed by your hosting. May I know which hosting platform are you using? Have you check is there any auto plugin installation options on your hosting panel? Also, we can help you to find out the reason for ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS if its caused by Litespeed Plugin, you may join our Slack channel or submit a ticket here for helping us to reproduce the bug. Thanks, Stanley Hi, sinterlesme. Just to add to what Stanley said, it sounds a lot like your hosting company is automatically installing LiteSpeed on your site. You can learn more about that here: https://blog.litespeedtech.com/2017/08/09/wpw-what-is-litespeed-cache-and-how-did-it-get-here/ You can deactivate the plugin, uninstall it, and create a file called .litespeed_flag in your WordPress root directory. The next time your host runs the auto-install feature, it will see that file and skip your site.
