Wordpress LScache Plugin: x-litespeed-cache-control: private but miss
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hi, id like to cache pages for logged in users, so i turned on Cache Logged-in Users and Cache Commenters in [1]Cache. No matter what I do, I only get: x-litespeed-cache: miss x-litespeed-cache-control: private,max-age=1800 Tried turning things on and off and also resetting the plugin with no luck. I cant figure out what is preventing to serve the private copy to logged in users. Any help would be really appreciated. Report: FHAHRKTI Thanks Hi, Did it also show miss if you refresh the page ? Best regards, Hi @CacheCrawler, thanks for your help unfortunately yes, even after several reloads its always miss . Theres also another strange thing happening: if I enable [5]ESI, the logged-in users start to get hit on their page loads but with OLS serving the public version instead of the private (confirmed by the x-litespeed-cache-control header). I wanted to try this even if Im not using Enterprise Version nor QUIC.cloud CDN (so no wonder if its not working properly, but still it did sound a little strange behavior). Hi, please provide the report number , you can get it in toolbox -> report -> click send to LiteSpeed Best regards, Here you go, Report: FHAHRKTI Thanks Hi, please try enable debug log , see if it gives any useful information and please dont enable ESI on OLS without QC , it will break things Best regards, Thanks for taking a look at the website, really appreciate that. Disabled ESI, my bad. As for the log, i tried taking a look but couldnt find anything useful that could point me in the right direction. Heres a sample of a logged in user for you. 10/12/21 01:18:32.036 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] ------GET HTTP/1.1 (HTTPS) [path removed] 10/12/21 01:18:32.036 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] Cookie _lscache_vary: admin_bar:1 logged-in:1 10/12/21 01:18:32.036 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] LSCACHE_VARY_COOKIE: ,wp-postpass_c5caa7a00d896df18f7dd0f757e043a4 10/12/21 01:18:32.036 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] LSCACHE_VARY_VALUE: +webp 10/12/21 01:18:32.127 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Ctrl] X Cache_control -> private ( logged in user ) 10/12/21 01:18:32.127 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Router] get_role: subscriber 10/12/21 01:18:32.128 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Optm] init 10/12/21 01:18:32.171 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Tag] Add --- HTTP.200 10/12/21 01:18:32.172 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Ctrl] X Cache_control init on 10/12/21 01:18:32.369 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Core] Footer hook called 10/12/21 01:18:32.370 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Core] Footer check passed 10/12/21 01:18:32.371 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] X-LiteSpeed-Cache-Control: private,max-age=1800 10/12/21 01:18:32.371 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] X-LiteSpeed-Tag: a84_tag_priv,public:a84_HTTP.200,public:a84_ricetta,public:a84_URL./website path removed/,public:a84_Po.72250,public:a84_ 10/12/21 01:18:32.371 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Core] Footer check passed 10/12/21 01:18:32.371 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Media] finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.375 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Optm] start 10/12/21 01:18:32.375 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Vary] uid: 1970 10/12/21 01:18:32.383 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.388 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.398 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.402 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.405 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.406 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.408 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.409 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.412 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.413 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.415 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.417 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.418 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.420 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.420 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.420 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.422 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.422 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.423 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Vary] uid: 1970 10/12/21 01:18:32.425 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] [Tag] Add --- MIN.475d66c3a47276320fd70e80c2e26361.css 10/12/21 01:18:32.438 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] CDN _finalize 10/12/21 01:18:32.440 [1.111.111.111:1111 1 6Lu] End responseExpand Thanks for your time and precious help! yeah ? I dont see anything wrong either if you create a fresh new WP , only install WP + LSCWP and enable private cache , did it work on you there ? this should help us to narrow down a bit where could be the issue Im gonna setup a new basic install and do some test to see if the problem will replicate or not. Ill keep you posted. Thanks
