It’s resolved! ✅ I was able to make ESI work using the short solution: creating a dedicated PHP template with do_shortcode(‘[ljo_events]’) and adding a route in functions.php. Now the ESI block renders correctly on cached pages.

Thanks for your support!

I checked the output_buffer.log as suggested. The HTML shows the same <include src=”/?lsesi=xxx”></include> before being sent to the browser.

I misspoke earlier.
When I access the ESI URL directly, e.g.:
https://mydomain.com/?lsesi=xxx
it correctly returns the shortcode block content.

The issue occurs only on the cached page: the ESI shortcode in the HTML shows:

<!-- lscwp esi-shortcode -->
<include src="/?lsesi=xxx"></include>
<!-- lscwp esi-shortcode esi end -->

— the block is not rendered in the cached page itself.
