    Hello Gabriel,

    Thank you for the information.
    Can you please disable the settings one by one in Performance>Browser Cache, save the settings and purge the cache after each setting is disabled, and see which one might be causing the issue?

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Thank you for the information and I am glad that the issue is resolved.
    Most likely once the plugin(s) were updated the cache needed to be purged.
    Thanks!

    Hello Gabriel,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this issue.
    I’ve checked your website on safari, I can see that the W3 Total Cache is active and yes, I can confirm getting the ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR

    If we disable CloudFlare, the problem stops occurring

    Are you referring to the W3 Total Cache Cloudflare extension or reverting back the DNS nameservers from Cloudflare to your origin?
    Have you tried purging the cache and clearing your browser cache?
    Is the DNS pagination completed on Cloudflare?
    Can you please share any additional information on why the Cloudflare support suggested that the issue is with W3 Total Cache?

    I am sorry for a lot of questions, however, this is the first time I am seeing this kind of problem related to Cloudflare or W3 Total Cache so we need more details for troubleshooting.

    Thanks!

    Hello Kobi,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
    As I can see the W3 Total Cache is enabled on your website and I can see that the slider on the homepage is working.
    Can you please confirm if you are still experiencing the issue?
    If you are still experiencing the issue, can you please try to disable Minify in Performance>General settings, save all settings and purge the cache and see if the issue persists?
    Thanks!

    Hello Mark,

    Sorry for the late reply I was trying to replicate the problem.
    We will do our best to set everything up. There is absolutely no reason why this can’t work, we just need to dig a little bit deeper to find out what may be causing this.
    So you can go forward and purchase the Performance Audit solution so we can schedule this.
    Thanks!

    Hello Monica,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help.
    I can see that the W3 Total Cache license key is applied to your installation activated on 2021-10-11
    If you still do not see the pro version active, remove the license key from Performance>General settings, Licensing sub-box, license field, and save all settings. Re-enter the license, verify the license with the “verify license button” and save all settings.

    W3 Total Cache Pro should be active after these steps!

    Thanks!

    Hello David,

    I a sorry about the issue you are experiencing and ai m happy to assist you with this.
    You can use User Agent Groups in W3 Total Cache for this. In Performance>Cache Groups you can create a group of user agents by specifying names in the user agents field. Assign a set of user agents to use a specific theme, redirect them to another domain, or if an existing mobile plugin is active, create user agent groups to ensure that a unique cache is created for each user agent group. Drag and drop groups into order (if needed) to determine their priority (top -> down).
    You can enable default groups (Tablet and Phones). Select your theme from a drop-down menu, save all settings and purge the cache.
    Let me know if this helps!
    Thank you!

    Hello Mark,

    You are most welcome and Thank you for your reply.

    I would be willing to do that if you can guarantee that it will actually work with the technologies we have in place.

    I cannot guarantee anything because I cannot guarantee anything. Simply because I need to have access to everything in order to be able to check and confirm.
    However, let me make some more tests and I’ll get back to you soon with more information.
    I’ve seen the W3TC + Bitnami configurations that are working excellent, I just need to investigate more why the AWS test fails.
    Please give me some time to check some more things and I’ll get back to you once I can share more details.

    Thanks!

    Hello Mark,

    Thank you for your feedback.
    First of all, I apologize for the lack of specific instructions. I’ve made a mistake stating that the “Enable” checkbox is in Performance>CDN.
    As you can see in the image below, I was referring to Performane>General settings, CDN sub-box. There, you can enable the CDN feature:
    Enable CDN checkbox
    I hope this clarifies where the CDN should be enabled and once again I am sorry about the mistake I made.
    I’ve checked some of our installations and in the image below you can see the Permissions that need to be set. So you should set all Block all public access to off:
    Block public access settings
    Block public access checkboxes

    I’ve then tried to do everything from the scratch.

    1 – In Performance>Generall settings, scroll down to CDN, enable the CDN, and select the CDN Type: Amazon Cloudfront over S3 and save all settings.
    2 – In Performance>CDN>Configuration Objects, I’ve added the Access key ID: and Secret key: and saved all settings.
    3 – I’ve then created a new bucket by adding the bucket name and clicking the Create a new bucket with distribution, I’ve got the notification that the Bucket was successfully created. Once the bucket was created the Replace site’s hostname with: was automatically populated.
    4 – I’ve then tested the S3 Upload And Cloudfront distribution. At first, it failed with the notification “Error: Distribution status is not Deployed, but “InProgress”.” so I’ve tried again after a minute and the test was successful.
    Configuration: Objects settings

    I was able to do the same thing 3 times in a row.

    As for the .htaccess file. Yes, you are correct Bitnami moved the configuration of .htaccess to the main application configuration files.
    In the link, you shared there is also a video that explains how to move the .htaccess rules created by W3 Total Cache to the main configuration file. You can also check the Rewrite Rules (based on active settings) in Performance>Install.

    I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any other questions.
    As for the configuration service, yes we can do all this for you if you chose the Performance Audit service.
    Thank you!

    Hello Mark,

    Thank you for yoru feedback and I am glad I was able to help!

    The notification about CDN via Amazon being currently disabled means that the CDN is not enabled in Performance>CDN. You do not have to enable it before setting up but you need to choose the CDN type method which as I see you already did. So the notification will be gone once the CDN function is enabled.
    The first thing that you should do is to remove https:// from the AWS URL in the Replace hostname with the field so it should look like this for example: d2z677rcp2alwr.cloudfront.net

    As for permissions, the wording there is a bit strange. So what you did is basically deny permissions by setting the last two to “On”. I hope this makes sense.

    Please let me know if this helps!

    Thanks!

    Hello Mark,

    Thank you for your question and for using W3 Total Cache.
    There are no know issues with a server on AWS Lightsail. Once W3 Total Cache is installed and activated, in order for caching to work (‘WP_CACHE’, true); needs to be defined in wp-config.php.
    W3 Total cache automatically adds

    /** Enable W3 Total Cache */
    define(‘WP_CACHE’, true); // Added by W3 Total Cache

    at the top of the wp-config.php file just below the <?PHP tag. So if you added the constant manually, please make sure it’s added just after opening <?PHP tag.
    W3 Total Cache needs write permissions for some files and folders, like wp-config.php, .htaccess, /wp-content/ etc.
    By default, the permissions for wp-config.php should be 644 which allows W3 Total Cache to write. Can you please double-check the permissions for that file?

    Let me know if you have any other questions.
    Thanks!

    Hello Monica,

    I’ve removed the details of your license since this is a public forum.
    Just to confirm, I’ve replied to the email you sent via the support channel couple of days ago, can you please confirm that you received the reply?
    Please make sure to contact us again if needed since you are a Pro user.

    I’ll answer your questions here also.

    I’ve checked your website and I can see that the Minified files are being served from the CDN. The semicolons are there. As you may know, removing the semicolons would break the JS file in most cases and as I can see there are no issues on your website.

    As for the other services, we are not offering 1 and 3 as a service.
    You can purchase an FSD CDN configuration in Performance>Support.
    As I can see from the test results, your website performance after the W3TC configuration looks great.

    Hello Geri,

    I am sorry about the issue you are experiencing with activating the W3 Total Cache Pro.
    Can you please drop us a note directly via the support channel in Performance>Support and provide the details of your purchase so I can find your subscription?

    If the license is showing and you are still not seeing the Pro version active, remove the license key from Performance>General settings, Licensing sub-box, license field and save all settings. Re-enter the license, verify the license with the “verify license button” and save all settings.

    W3 Total Cache Pro should be active after these steps!

    Hello Karina,

    As I’ve already answered in the email correspondence, you should try disabling the gzip compression in Performance>Browser Cache, save all settings and purge the cache and see if the issue persists.

    If the issue is gone after that it means that you have already had gzip compression or Zlib compression enabled on some level, server-side, or some other plugins and should keep gzip compression enabled.

    Since you are using Cloudflare, you most likely have brotli enabled in Cloudflare also.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
    The “eliminate render-blocking CSS by moving it to HTTP body” option only works for the minified CSS files. As I see some files are not being minified.
    You also have some external files that cannot be minified by the W3 Total Cache.
    Are you using any AMP plugin by any chance and what theme are you using for your website?

    Hello,

    Thank you for your question and I am happy to answer.
    In the W3 Total Cache plugin, there is a WPML extension in Performance>Extensons which is available only after upgrading the plugin to the pro version and ensures “WPML” plugin compatibility by improving the caching performance of websites localized by WPML.

    in reply to: How to save settings in the database instead of file #43422
    Marko Vasiljevic
    Keymaster

    Hello Sergiu,

    Thank you for your questions and I am happy to answer.

    1. Yes, you can store the W3 Total Cache configuration in a database instead of the file. For more details and instructions please check out our FAQ page.

    2. This error occurs because the curl verifies and makes a secure connection request using a self-signed certificate. When it does not find the valid certificate, it throws an error.
    You can try the following:
    – Download “cacert.pem” from here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html.
    – Save the cacert.pem file anywhere on your system.
    Example: Since you’re modifying both php.ini, and telling PHP where to look for this file on a Windows server, save the cacert.pem in "C:\PHP\Extras\SSL".
    – Open your php.ini file. If your php.ini file doesn’t have the curl.cainfo line, just add it to the end of the file, then add the file path where you saved your cacert.pem file:

    Change:
    ; curl.cainfo =
    To:
    curl.cainfo = "C:\PHP\Extras\SSL\cacert.pem";
    Restart your server.

    If you are unsure about the steps, please reach out to your hosting provider for assistance with this.

    I hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks!

    in reply to: Can W3 Total Cache exclude IPs from caching? #43369
    Marko Vasiljevic
    Keymaster

    Hello George,

    Thank you for this great question and I am happy to answer.
    The short answer is no, W3 Total Cache cannot serve noncached pages for specific IP addresses.
    W3 Total Cache does not take into consideration the IP from which the page was visited. There are options not to cache pages for logged-in users or specific user agent roles in Peformance>Page Cache.
    I hope this helps!

    Hello,

    Thank you for your question and I am happy to answer.
    W3 Total Cache Pro license unlocks the advanced features that can improve the website performance even more. You can check this article to see what comes with W3 Total Cache Pro.
    The configuration services are separate, meaning that you need to purchase the desired solution in Performance>Support via the plugin.
    The Installation and optimization are not included when purchasing the Pro license. In other words, we are happy to answer any question you might have with the configuration of the plugin, but if you want us to configure the plugin for you, it’s a separate solution.

    I hope this helps!

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to answer your question.
    For most users, dedicated and VPS included the W3 Total Cache Disk: Enhanced caching method is recommended. It serves cached pages using the server’s URL rewriting capabilities, skipping PHP and WordPress entirely.
    If you, however, want to store the cache in the database you can use Redis or Memcached.
    I hope this helps!

    Hello Herb,

    Thank you for your question and I am happy to answer.
    W3 Total Cache Pro license is not necessary for the Redis Caching method. In other words, this is not a Pro feature. If you are on shared hosting, then memory-based caching like Redis is likely to be unavailable for you.
    In order to use Redis via W3 Total Cache, you need to install PHP Redis extension on your server, so I would advise reaching out to your hosting support for assistance with this.
    In case you still want to try out the Pro version of the plugin, we are offering a 30-day money-back guarantee.

    Hello Lloyd,

    Thank you for your question and I am happy to assist you with this.
    As I can see the woff2 file is being served from the CDN.
    You can try adding the *.woff;*.woff2 in Perfomance>CDN>Files types to import and also try using a custom files list and add the path of the files for example:
    /wp-content/themes/some_theme/fonts/some_fond.woff
    Make sure to save all settings and purge the cache once done.
    You can also exclude specific font from the CDN, by adding it to Rejected files: list as mentioned above.

    I hope this helps!

    Hello Karl,

    wp-.*\.php
    index\.php

    These are default values. W3 Total Cache does not cache pages with query strings by default so you should remove the following:

    *?tve=true
    *?cpo_options=1
    *?et_fb=1

    Make sure to save all settings and purge the cache once the lines above are removed.
