Wordpress LScache Plugin: Site Menu Displays Badly
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 I keep encountering this issue where my sites navigation menu stops displaying properly, and other elements stop functioning, with LiteSpeed running. Ive followed some of the recommendations mentioned here: https://docs.litespeedtech.com/lscache/lscwp/ts-optimize/ https://blog.litespeedtech.com/2018/01/31/troubleshooting-lscache-optimization/ Ive appended to my page URLs in question /?LSCWP_CTRL=before_optm to see if they display normally again ? and they do. Subsequently, it is recommended that I turn off all my JS / CSS optimizations ? which I have done. Everything displays fine again after. This was about a week or two ago. Now, the issue has appeared once more. You Can view a screen recording here: https://we.tl/t-KEaIhjWnKA To get it displaying normally again, I usually flush the cache of the pages in question. This time, Ive marked them as No Optimization . The issue disappears? for now. The page I need help with: https://bit.ly/2XRJQfY Hi, Im really impressed with what youve done to troubleshoot this issue yourself, very nice job. And, thank you for providing such detailed info as well as a video demonstration of the problem. Heres my suggestion. If you can consistently reproduce the problem, please make it happen and then go to LiteSpeed Cache Toolbox and generate a report under the Report tab by clicking the Send to LiteSpeed button.

Either way, well do our best to troubleshoot it for you. Best regards. Hi, Please forgive my bluntness, I am not exctly sure what does the screen record should reveal to me? but you can always proceed with old fashion way if you are not sure which option(s) gives trouble , you can always reset to default setting first , and start it from there , e.g 1. if default works , 2. then only enable certain part of options , then check again 3. enable few other options if step 2 works out 4. and repeat step 2-3 , until you can narrow down which option caused trouble , then we will how can it be dealt with. Best regards, @CacheCrawler You can compare the screen recording to what is currently on the site and see how the menu displays. Its not working properly. The thing is, this issue doesnt appear for weeks at a time, and when it does, it interrupts my day-to-day ecommerce operations. People cant complete sales. So I need to solve it right away. I dont have time to troubleshoot it. you mean the Thickness Display Options dont pop up and open or something ? a more specific on what I see is that , I can open either of them for first time , and the second time it wont open anymore @CacheCrawler Right now the problem has disappeared because Ive set the page(s) to No Optimization from the LS drop down menu in the WordPress black toolbar. But yes, as you mentioned: when the LS problem does appear, the product drop down menus dont work. And the menu doesnt display properly. Even after Ive turned off all CSS / JS optimizations. The only temporary solution I have found is by clearing the cache. Hi, I will close this topic as you have opened ticket in our system already further communication will be going through the ticket Best regards,
