combined vay cache (cookie + user agent)

[mkaaaay]

We currently have vary caching working well based on cookies. How ever, we need to split them up between desktop and tablet.

How can we combine this below so that we have a single vary where the cookie exists AND the user is on an ipad?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "iPad" [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:vary=tablet]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} _ls_cache_vary_cookie=customer_zone1 [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:vary=customer_zone1]

Thank you v much.

By default, LiteSpeed servers will recognize any cookie that starts with _lscache_vary as a vary cookie. Hence you may not need separate rule for it ( assuming "_ls_cache_vary_cookie" is a typo from your rule and it should be "_lscache_vary_cookie". If it is the case, you might just need one user agent rule.

_lscache_vary_cookie doesn't work. So either the docs are wrong or I've got something else wrong.

I have also tried with lscache_vary_ with the same result.

If i login and create a _lscache_vary_cookie based cookie, the page caches fine. However, other users that DO NOT have that _lscache_vary_cookie cookie also see that logged in cache. It is not a vary at all.

.... which brings me to my original question: how to add a second cookie tot he vary so that we can vary on say logged_in AND is_tablet ?

Just write in sequence.

For your tablet:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "iPad" [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:vary=tablet]

then
Cookie vary:

RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Vary:_lscache_vary_cookie]

why on _lscache_vary_cookie? You can set your own cookie name to be varied.

By the way,
"If i login and create a _lscache_vary_cookie based cookie, the page caches fine. However, other users that DO NOT have that _lscache_vary_cookie cookie also see that logged in cache. It is not a vary at all." looks something wrong, you can log a ticket and we can check further.
