Avoid url parameters in widget with ESI?

    I’m using ESI for some of my sidebar widgets that feature random items on each reload, so I don’t want them to be cached for too long.

    The issue is that this adds a long parameter to the link url. In this format: ?_control=no-vary&_hash=XXX&esi=XXX&lsesi=widget

    This causes issues with crawlers who treat them as unique (duplicate) urls.

    Can this be avoided?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    I’m afraid there is no way to bypass this , the URL is required for LSCWP/LSWS to identify/process the ESI request.

    Please try custom sitemap xml, crawler should never see the ESI URL at all

    Best regards,
