Title: Disable cache for a plugin Last modified: July 30, 2021 --- # Disable cache for a plugin * Resolved [wos2021](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wos2021/) * (@wos2021) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-cache-for-a-plugin/) * Hi, * I have a client that has Woocommerce installed and uses a plugin to enabled products certain time of the day. Is it possible to disable the cache for a certain plugin? The site uses food products, so there for it has a category for the products being disabled. Plugin being used to enable/disable is WPC Product Timer for WooCommerce. * The problem is that I need to purge the cache for the products to be enabled and disabled and it´s kind of annoying. * How can I solve this ? * Thanks in advance!

I still must manually purge cache. Why doesn’t URI exclusion work? * Plugin Support [qtwrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qtwrk/) * (@qtwrk) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-cache-for-a-plugin/#post-14724645) * Hi, * it should work , please check the HTTP response header on the pages you excluded, you should see `x-litespeed-cache-control: no-cache` * Best regards, * Thread Starter [wos2021](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wos2021/) * (@wos2021) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-cache-for-a-plugin/#post-14730490) * Ok so I can see the HTTP response saying x-litespeed-cache-control: no-cache on the URI:s I put in. * So this should be able to solve my problem above?
