Browser Cache is Caching wp-admin Pages
-
Hello,
We still have the problem that the WP admin pages are cached in the browser.
I disabled the browser cache in WP-Optimize two months ago, but the problem persists.I found a very good description of the problem here – we are struggling with the same issues: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-optimize-browser-cache-is-caching-wp-admin-php-pages/
Our PHP version is 8.4, so that shouldn’t be the reason for the problems.
What is the situation at digikb (@digikb)? Has a solution been found in the meantime?
I first reported the problem here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-works-exceptionally-well/Any help would be very welcome!

We haven’t had a fix for this, other than a suggestion from WP-Optimize to update our PHP version, however as you say it’s affecting PHP 8.3/8.4 as reported by other users.
We have just disabled the browser caching feature by going into Static File Headers and setting the Browser static file caching headers Expiration time to 0 which disables it. You may need to also clear the cache in WP-Optimize and on your browser and restart to make sure the new cache settings are picked up. Make sure that the website can update .htaccess and any Cache-Control settings are no longer there.
In reality this only has a minor impact on performance in the real world, but in our opinion this is a major bug that should be fixed in the plugin. Backend pages should never be cached.
