LiteSpeed Cache for WordPress Settings: Cache
Cache Logged-in Users
on
This setting allows content to be cached for logged-in users. Pages will be stored in private cache by IP/session ID.
Cache Commenters
on
This option is useful for the WordPress option that requires moderation on guest comments. If that option is set, this option will serve the cached version of the page, meaning the commenters will not see their under moderation comments. If off, commenters will not be served from cache.
Cache REST API
on
This option allows you to cache requests that are made by WordPress REST API calls.
Cache Login Page
on
This option will cache the login page. Normally, there is no reason to uncheck this option. However, if there is something that may identify a user on the page, this should be off.
Cache favicon.ico
on
This option will cache the favicon.ico response if it does not exist. The reason for caching this is because if the file does not exist, it will load WordPress every time. This will avoid that extra call.
Cache PHP Resources
on
This option will cache any PHP resources loaded by themes. Generally speaking, these are css or js resources loaded in PHP. In most cases, these are static outputs, so there is no reason to load PHP every time. If they are in fact dynamic, this should be off.
Cache Mobile
off
This option enables users to display a separate html for mobile and desktop views. This is primarily used for non-responsive themes, but can also be used in situations where different widgets are loaded depending on browser type.
The list of Mobile View User Agents must not be empty when this is on.
List of Mobile User Agents
disabled/string
If Cache Mobile is set to off
, this text box will be grayed-out. Once enabled,
this list should be filled in with a rewrite-rule-friendly list of user agents.
SYNTAX: Each entry should be separated with a bar, '|'. Any spaces should be escaped with a backslash before the space, '\ '.
The default list WordPress uses is Mobile|Android|Silk/|Kindle|BlackBerry|Opera\ Mini|Opera\ Mobi
Private Cached URIs
empty string
A list of path patterns that should never be publicly-cached. To make an exact match, add a $
to the end. One per line.
Examples:
private
matchescategory/private
,category/private-posts
,tag/private
, and2017/10/i-took-a-private-phone-call
./category/private
matches/category/private
and/category/private-posts
./category/private$
matches only/category/private
.
Object Cache
These settings have moved to the Advanced tab.
Browser Cache
These settings have moved to the Advanced tab.
Drop Query String
empty string
This setting allows you to specify the query strings that should be ignored by LSCache.
Some query strings, particularly those that are used for marketing or analytics purposes, have no effect on the content that is displayed on the page. The page renders the same with and without these query strings. As such, it should not be necessary to store multiple copies of the page in the cache. Learn more.
