 * The HTTP headers module seems to be completely broken in 7.02. I just did a scan
   on my site [https://inocul8r.net](https://inocul8r.net) and scored a grade F 
   when I had A+ before the upgrade ?
 * Currently having to disable this add-on and use another plugin. I run a security
   site, so having this deficit doesn’t look very good. Can this be addressed as
   a priority please ?
 * Thanks

 * Are you running a caching plugin? If so, please try disabling it to see if it
   fixes it.

 * Yes, I am (WP-Rocket). Just disabled it, and things are back to normal. For obvious
   reasons, this isn’t optimum – are there any workarounds ?

 * Ok – I think I found a potential workaround. Looks like WP-Rocket makes modifications
   to the .htaccess file which override shield. I’ve just activated WP-Rocket again,
   cleared the cache, and everything is back to normal.

 * Actually – scrap that. Testing with cleared cache gives an “F” again….. Not great.

 * Created a ticket with WP-Rocket also to see what they have to say.

 * Great, glad we could find the source.
 * It’d be good if WP Rocket can advise on how to set headers so that they’ll be
   respected in the page cache. We’re happy to add whatever needs to be added to
   improve inter-operability
