Using a WordPress caching plugin? Read this!

    Sadly at this time, WordPress plugins that use static page caches such as W3 Total Cache and WP Super Cache kick in before this plugin has a chance to send the special header.

    You have three options:

    – Turn your caching plugin off and use this plugin.
    – Turn static page caching off and use this plugin.
    – Don’t use this plugin, continue to use caching, and add the header at the server level. There are some guidelines to do that here: https://www.gnuterrypratchett.com/

    I’ll update this post and the plugin if I find a workaround for this.

    It’s now perfectly fine to use this plugin with a WordPress caching plugin.

    As of version 0.2.0, the plugin adds a meta tag to your HTML and to outgoing wp_mail() email, both of which are visible even when using a caching plugin.

    If you want HTTP headers to work while using a caching plugin, you’d need to implement them at the server level. Check out your options at: https://www.gnuterrypratchett.com/
