Litespeed & JCH cache plugin issue

[kingsa]

Hi There,
I am using JCH and Litespeed. It came to my notice that sometimes the website is not loading the css and Js files. Our website gets lots of traffic and the website sometimes doesn’t load everything.

Do you mean https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/jch-optimize/ ? If you disable JCH optimize, everything ok? Did you use some css and js optimization functionality from JCH? You should check with JCH Optimize support.

I have tested without litespeed and it loads fine. Once i clear the cache of my phone browser history and it doesn't load the site js and css.

To solve it, try to identify the file from plugin that combines .js and .css files and exclude this file from being cached.

Its jch plugin i am using to do this? how can i exclude it? can you assist me ?

I don't know the cache plugin for Joomla, but every cache plugin for LSCache should have a function to exclude URLs from being cached, so check the plugin if there is such function. It should be found in TAB "Exclude Rules"

So what it does if i exclude the url? it won;t cache the url correct. I just don;t want the css and js file to be cache.

If this plugin works like I expect and if you exclude the file, that is responsible for combining css and js files, caching works like it should, but without caching the file for combining and the plugin can do its job. If excluding this file from being cached within LScache plugin doesn't work a response header with a specific cache control define must be added into the code of this plugin for combining .css and .js files.

I have a similiar function in my applications and it works like explained.

If you don't know what and how to do, contact plugin manufacturer and ask him where to add this header in plugin code. This single line of code makes JCH compatible with LSCache.

header('X-LiteSpeed-Cache-Control: no-cache');

where do i add this code? .htaccess file?
