# Nonce_failed error when submitting form

 * Dear Staff,
 * I am using JetFormBuilder for forms and getting “nonce_failed” error when submitting
   form. When I disable Litespeed, error resolves. I didn’t enable cache for any
   page, just using “memcached” object cache and css optimization. I am sure its
   related to object cache because when error first appeared, I was using Litespeed
   for only object cache, nothing more.
 * I added **ESI Nonces** as following and form submission solved for users except
   admin.
   `_stats\_noncesubscribe\_noncejet\_fb\_nonce privatejet\_formbuilder\_nonce
   privateajax\_linking\_nonce private jet* privateelementor\_* privatewp\_nonce
   private
 * Also added these ones to cookie exclude
   `_jet\_fb\_noncejet\_formbuilder\_noncewp\
   _nonce\_ajax\_linking\_nonce
 * Last Report Number: **AXRNPFCR**
   Last Report Date: **12/16/2025 18:00:36**

 * I also submitted ticket on crocoblock but they couldn’t resolve it. Adding this
   line of code in functions.php, didn’t work as well.
 * `add_filter('jet-form-builder/security/csrf-token/datetime-limit', function (
   $datetime) {
    return $datetime->modify( '-8 hours' );});

 * add nonces into esi nonce list is not engouh , you need to toggle “enable esi”
   to on , that is the master switch

 * I enabled ESI
   – Website slows down extremely.– JetEngine’s “profile builder” 
   pages duplicates it’s content and doesn’t stop duplicating. (console errors: 
   [https://imgur.com/a/bbwt87R](https://imgur.com/a/bbwt87R))– Nonce error doesn’t
   resolve.
 * I was wondering, if ESI is the correct approach to fix JetFormBuilder’s nonce
   failure?

 * By the way, purging cache doesn’t work as well

 * okay , that means ESI may not be compatible in your site
 * for such case, the only alternative is set a short cache TTL, like 12 hours or
   lower , to satisfy the nonce lifespan

   error still.

 * okay , now that makes no sense , let’s rewind this
 * based on your first topic , when that occurs , if you only do `purge object cache`,
   will it work ?

 * this error started at least 1 months ago, but i am not sure if it started with
   litespeed installation or not.
 * At start, i was using litespeed for only object cache and evertyhing else was
   disabled. Nonce validation was still failing. Tried disabling object cache and
   purging it but didnt work out. Only nonce validation worked when litespeed is
   deactivated.
 * I didnt work on this problem much at that time and enabled other features for
   css, js, browser cache etc. but error was still there.
 * At this stage of my website, litespeed boosted my performance significantly and
   i don’t want to deactivate it. Other users seem to not effected by nonce error
   except admin user. By the way, i disabled plugins which is admin tools such as
   query monitor, but didnt work out too. I can send plugins list if necessary.

 * the only thing that possibly interact with nonce is the ESI , but your case seems
   have ESI disabled
 * but let’s just make sure it is off , please go to toolbox -> import/export ->
   reset to default setting , try the default , without object cache , see if it
   works

 * tried resetting settings to default and purged cache, deleted browser cache and
   logged in again as admin but didn’t work out. Things I tried also:
   1- disabled
   all of the plugins that doesn’t effect front-end, didn’t work.2- tried ESI again
   without but still no good.
