Disable Cache in PHP

[madesimplemedia]

Hi,
We develop out sites in Concrete5 CMS and I've recently got a new VPS with Litespeed cache.
The sites are running nice and fast but one issue I have is that when I login I think the cache is causing some bugs with the CMS.
Is there a way in PHP to disable Litespeed? It would then just be a case of enabling/disabling if logged in or out
Thanks
Dave

Hello,
You can disable lscache for vhost. The way depend on you configuration, but just see this wiki for activation and reverse it (like cachedisable).

If you are login to the admin area you can try to exclude it like in this wiki:

Thanks for your reply. The tricky thing is when logged into the CMS, you don't enter a folder, the url is unchanged. Therefore there is no admin area to add an .htaccess with the disable cache rules.

Would this exclude caching if viewing the site via the subdomain "admin" e.g. admin.domain.com?

<IfModule LiteSpeed>
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC] [OR]
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com [NC]
 RewriteCond %{ORG_REQ_URI} !^admin.domain.com
 RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]
</IfModule>

please try

 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC] [OR]
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com [NC]
 RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:max-age=120]

 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^HEAD|GET$
 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^admin.domain.com$ [NC]
 RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:no-cache]

Thanks. Does this need Litespeed cache to be disabled by default?
