Thank you!

Thank you for that response. I think that better explains the plugin. I was looking for a plugin where I could use my own CDN account, but that wasn’t clear on the description before.

The first item in the plugin description is “Multi-CDN (Cloudflare, Fastly, BunnyCDN, Google Cloud, and CloudFront).”

However, when you install it, the only option is to sign up for a Statically account and use the Statically CDN. There is no option to choose another CDN, such Cloudfront, Google Cloud, or Digital Ocean.

So, can you explain how it is multi-CDN?

Just bumping this up to see if anyone can help…

Still not fixed in the latest release. Pothi’s fix above has to be re-applied after upgrade.

oh, and I also changed the nginx.conf file’s ownership to root so that w3tc wouldn’t overwrite the changes.

I think I was able to correct the nginx configuration.

The default is:

# BEGIN W3TC Page Cache core
set $w3tc_rewrite 1;
if ($request_method = POST) {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($query_string != "") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($request_uri !~ \/$) {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($http_cookie ~* "(comment_author|wp\-postpass|w3tc_logged_out|wordpress_logged_in|wptouch_switch_toggle)") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($http_user_agent ~* "(W3\ Total\ Cache/0\.9\.2\.7)") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
set $w3tc_enc "";
if ($http_accept_encoding ~ gzip) {
    set $w3tc_enc _gzip;
}
if (-f "$document_root/wp-content/cache/page_enhanced/$http_host/$request_uri/_index.html$w3tc_enc") {
  set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($w3tc_rewrite = 1) {
    rewrite .* "/wp-content/cache/page_enhanced/$http_host/$request_uri/_index.html$w3tc_enc" last;
}
# END W3TC Page Cache core

My edits are below. I changed the default rewrite variable to 0 and, added quotes around the “_gzip” variable, and got rid of the document_root variable and changed the variable to 1 if the cached file exists:

# BEGIN W3TC Page Cache core
set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
if ($request_method = POST) {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($query_string != "") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($request_uri !~ \/$) {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($http_cookie ~* "(comment_author|wp\-postpass|w3tc_logged_out|wordpress_logged_in|wptouch_switch_toggle)") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
if ($http_user_agent ~* "(W3\ Total\ Cache/0\.9\.2\.7)") {
    set $w3tc_rewrite 0;
}
set $w3tc_enc "";
if ($http_accept_encoding ~ gzip) {
    set $w3tc_enc "_gzip";
}
if (-f "/wp-content/cache/page_enhanced/$http_host/$request_uri/_index.html$w3tc_enc") {
  set $w3tc_rewrite 1;
}
if ($w3tc_rewrite = 1) {
    rewrite .* "/wp-content/cache/page_enhanced/$http_host/$request_uri/_index.html$w3tc_enc" last;
}
# END W3TC Page Cache core

Removing () fixed it, thanks!

This is a bump of this topic so people see that this plugin is broken and abandoned by its author. DO NOT INSTALL IT, there are lots of reports of it breaking newer WordPress versions.

I fixed this temporary adding a static $pl = false; in the function GetXmlUrl.

Thanks, this helped fix the problem in nginx for me too.

I also paid for it and the author re-billed me earlier this year for annual support, yet the author appears to have disappeared. His blog hasn’t been updated in quite a while.

I’ve installed the plugin Transposh. I’m shocked how well it works. It’s much better than Global Translator (Pro) was.
