WPFC adds the browser caching rules into the htaccess but as I see that they do not work. You should contact your hosting provider. mod_expires.c library may not have been installed into the server.
Hi Emre,
I’m escalating this to my web hosting provider. Thanks for your quick reply.
It works! Thank you very much!
Hi @emrevona Today I get the same error, how do I update my settings to force expires headers?
And is there an option to specify the time? Or is this in development?
Kind regards,
Remzi
You need to contact your hosting provider.
Is there not a way to clear options? Because the previous time it was working.
And you didn’t give me an answer about specifying the time.
Browser caching is activated via htaccess if mod_expires.c the library has been installed into the server. If it is not installed, we cannot activate it so you need to contact your hosting provider.
Hi @emrevona
Now I know what happens, if I clone a website with Duplicator (https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/duplicator/) sometimes your .htaccess rules disappear. If I deactivate and activate or turn off and on the options everything works fine. Maybe it’s a good idea if your plugin checks the .htaccess form time to time or to add a option to check this?
Everything works again, could I change the cache time in the .htaccess file or will the plugin overwrite this if I change the settings?

The rules are not deleted by wp fastest cache. Maybe there was compatible problem between a plugin and wp fastest cache. I have no idea.
I saw that Duplicator backups the original .htaccess file and removes it. Now I know what the culprit is.
