-====== LiteSpeed Cache for Drupal 8 ====== +~~REDIRECT>​https://docs.litespeedtech.com/​lscache/lscdrupal/overview/~~
- +
-Drupal 8 is significantly changed from Drupal 7. The developers switched from procedural programming to object-oriented programming. Drupal 8 has a built-in page cache (for static content) and a dynamic page cache for logged in users. The latter basically works as a reverse proxy written in PHP. The built-in proxy is good if you have no other options, however, with the LiteSpeed Cache plugin you will see a great improvement in performance for your Drupal 8 site. +
- +
-Visit [[https://www.litespeedtech.com/​products/cache-plugins|our website]] for more information about our cache plugins. +
- +
-=====Prerequisites===== +
-This version of LiteSpeed Cache requires **Drupal 8.xx** or later and **LiteSpeed Web Server (LSWS) 5.2.3** or later. +
- +
-=====Download===== +
-Download the LiteSpeed Cache Module to your local computer from [[https://​github.com/​litespeedtech/​lscache_drupal/​archive/​master.zip|our GitHub repository]]. +
- +
-=====Enable LiteSpeedCache using rewrite rules===== +
- +
-<​code>​ +
-<​IfModule LiteSpeed>​ +
-CacheLookup on +
-</​IfModule>​ +
-</​code>​ +
- +
-=====Install Plugin===== +
-Once you have downloaded the plugin, you can install by visiting ''<​nowiki>​http://​example.com/​admin/​modules/​install</​nowiki>''​ (where ''​example.com/''​ is your site's domain). +
- +
-Using the **Browse** button you can upload the plugin you just downloaded and start the installation. Once installed, enable the plugin by visiting ''<​nowiki>​http://​example.com/​drupal/​admin/​modules</​nowiki>''​ +
- +
-{{:​litespeed_wiki:​cache:​lscdrupal-install.png?​800|}} +
- +
-  * Use the search box to search for a module. +
-  * Check the checkbox next to ''​LiteSpeed Cache''​. +
-  * Click **Install**. +
- +
-=====Configuration===== +
- +
-This step is optional. Once the plugin is activated, your cache is already up and running, but on the configuration screen, you can customize a few settings. +
- +
-Visit ''<​nowiki>​http:​//example.com/​admin/​config/​development/​lscache</​nowiki>''​. +
- +
-{{:​litespeed_wiki:​cache:​lscdrupal-configure.png?​800}} +
- +
-====Clear Cache==== +
- +
-===Clear this site=== +
- +
-This option only clears the current Drupal installation. This helps if you have multiple Drupal installations on the same virtual host. +
- +
-===Clear all=== +
- +
-This button clears the entire LiteSpeed cache for this virtual host. This includes any other web apps using LSCache (WordPress, XenForo, etc.) on this vhost. +
- +
-====Debug==== +
- +
-If turned on, LiteSpeed Cache will emit extra headers for testing while developing or deploying. +
- +
-====ESI==== +
- +
-This setting allows you to use Edge Side Includes with LiteSpeed Web Server Enterprise edition. (OpenLiteSpeed doesn'​t support ESI, although it does no harm to keep it turned on.) +
- +
-====Max Age==== +
- +
-Amount of time LiteSpeed Web Server will save pages in the public cache. +
- +
-====Max Age Private==== +
