Question WordPress Cache Problem

[bmalkoc]

Hello. I tried all popular cache plugins but WordPress cache doesn't work in nginx. I think it is related to nginx configuration. I am using this code (found in plesk website). Is that correct? Or what can i do for fix this?

# WORDPRESS PERMALINKS
if (!-e $request_filename) {
    rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
}

# GZIP Compression
gzip on;
gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\\.(?!.*SV1)";
gzip_min_length 1100;
gzip_buffers 4 32k;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_comp_level 9;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/javascript application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/x-icon image/bmp image/svg+xml;
gzip_vary on;

}

Hi,
where have you found the config above?
You can try removing the #SECURITY-Part at the bottom, maybe this is blocking the access.
Have you disabled the "Proxy mode"?

Hello thanks for your reply. I don't remember where i found. I deleted security section but doesn't work. Also proxy mode is disabled.

Alright, which caching plugin are you using?
I would try removing the whole #NGINX Caching section and let it handle with the wp caching plugin.

I am using WP-Rocket. Removed this section, still not caching.

For me, wp rocket is working fine (disabled proxy mode, no nginx caching, no serving of static files by nginx).
Which php handler are you using?

Can you share your nginx config code?

 

[Fabian H]

I've no additional nginx settings configured which would affect anything like that.
How do you check if the files are cached or not?

 

[bmalkoc]

Your "Additional nginx directives" empty right?

I am checking cache from source code. There is must be "<!-- This website is like a Rocket, isn't it? Performance optimized by WP Rocket." text. And scripts not minified and combined.

Are you using cloudflare or something else that might be caching the website before your wp rocket installation?

No i am not using cloudflare.

Are you using a second caching plugin maybe? You should use only one at a time.

No i am using only WP-Rocket.

What does "does not work mean"? What specifically isn't working about caching?
