Configuring Page Caching

The Reverse Caching Proxy module works in conjunction with site caching policies.

Page Caching

To configure Page Caching policies go to Administration -> Content -> Pages -> Caching. The following view will be presented:

1. Click Add:

Add page caching
    
        2. Edit/configure:    

Page   

Click Choose to select the page to be cached. Note: pages which are used for logging on or collecting data via a Form should not be cached.  

Apply to children

If required, check to apply caching to pages below the selected page.   

Expiry (minutes)

The expiration in minutes for the cache policy. Note: this does not apply to “do no cache” caching policy.

Caching Policy  

Select the required option:    

Do not cache

No caching is applied and the page is loaded dynamically on each request.

Private

Default value. Sets Cache-Control: private to specify that the response is cacheable only on the client and not by shared (proxy server) caches.

Public

Sets Cache-Control: public to specify that the response is cacheable by clients and shared (proxy) caches.

Server

Specifies that the response is cached only at the origin server. Similar to the NoCache option. Clients receive a Cache-Control: no-cache directive but the document is cached on the origin server. Equivalent to ServerAndNoCache.

Server and Private

Indicates that the response is cached at the server and at the client but nowhere else. Proxy servers are not allowed to cache the response.

Note: for the purposes of the Reverse Caching Proxy, only the Do Not Cache, Private and Public options are relevant.
