 ====== LSCache + PrestaShop Configuration ======
-LSCache, similar to Varnish cache, is a simpler and more efficient page caching solution built-in to LiteSpeed Web Server. When used in conjunction with PrestaShop, you can expect significant performance gains with a quick and easy setup. Cache management is also made significantly easier and more flexible. While the LiteSpeed cache plugin for Prestashop is still in development, rewrite rules can still be used to customize LSCache's behavior.
+**Note: This page describes an easy way to set up simple caching for PrestaShop installations. With the release of LiteSpeed Cache for PrestaShop, though, this solution is now deprecated. [[litespeed_wiki:cache:lscps|Click here]] for the LiteSpeed Cache for PrestaShop installation and configuration manual.**

-**Note:** For any friendly URLs included in the REQUEST_URI configuration line, make sure any corresponding translated (rewritten) URLs are also included. (To view friendly URLs in the PrestaShop administration interface, click Preferences >> SEO & URLs.)
-We recommend using a different domain for your backend such as backend.your_domain_name.com so that you can add/edit/preview a website's content through the admin domain without worrying about these changes being cached and seen by visitors.
-To get the non-cached version of a page, add the "nocache" query string to a URL.
+  * The ''CacheDisable public /'' directive is used to help protect against globally-enabled caching and is optional. If this directive is not used, the server's global cache settings should be checked to ensure that cache is not enabled globally. **Do NOT** use ''CacheEnable public /'' here as it will enable caching for all URLs belonging to this virtual host, including admin pages.
+  * ''your_domain_name.com'' is the web address of your PrestaShop site and ''your_admin_folder'' is the PrestaShop administration folder name specified during installation. Replace them with your real domain name and admin folder.

-__**Adding a cron job to delete outdated cache files**__
-While optional, it is a good idea to clear out old cache files that are past the set **Time To Live (TTL)**. To do this enter the following in /etc/crontab
+Look for ''X-LiteSpeed-Cache: hit'' in the reply headers. [[litespeed_wiki:cache:no-plugin-setup-guidline#verify_that_pages_are_served_from_the_cache|See more detailed directions here]].

+===== Deleting Outdated Cache Files Using A Cron Job =====
-**Note:** This cron job deletes cached files that are more than 8 minutes old every 10 minutes. Since the cache TTL is set at 120 seconds (2 minutes), it is safe to delete these files that are way passed TTL.
