Facebook images caching

Jun 19 13 7:06 pm

Hi Qbik Wingate Team

I found lately all facebook images not caching by wingate.
Also now all facebook images are connected using SSL.
Maybe facebook had change their policy and the HTTP header to not allowed caching image from their server.

So any "trick" we can do with Wingate to "forced" caching facebook images?
(maybe with Wingate 8?)

or this problem only happen to me?

Thanks (y)

Hi

I'll need to look to see if FB started suppressing image caching. AFAICR, they serve all images from a script.

WinGate 8 has cache rules in the cache module (as opposed to cache control item in flow-chart policy), which allow overriding cache-suppression from the server. It also can cache https, since it has https inspection.

If you'd like to try it, send an email to support@wingate.com, and I can send you a link to download.

Regards

Adrien
