The only thing that changed is that wpForo2 has its own internal FULL caching system. In wpForo 1 that caching was kind of DB/Object caching.

So i guess what suggestions were given in those topics from seatch, still are valid. Meaning wpForo2 page(s) should be excluded by ANY caching plugin or server cache.

I contacted my host and here is his answer:
 
"Unfortunately, there is no such exclusion on our side.The solution would otherwise be to place your forum on a subdomain instead of a subfolder so that it is not impacted by Varnish."
 
Is this solution possible according to you?
