@sofy,

It's better to exclude wpForo forum page from the Varnish, here is a good article:

https://support.cloudways.com/how-to-exclude-url-from-varnish/

wpForo has its own cache system, so you should exclude it from all cache solutions. Here is the FAQ topic: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/wpforo-and-cache-plugins/

I am not using Cloudways. I am using Godaddy + Cloudflare + W3 total cache plugin.

Here are what i have done:

1. except /community/* page from W3 total cache plugin (Database + Page + Browser and all),

2. Bypass cache /community/* page from cloudflare cache

The only thing i do not know is, how can i exlude /community/* in Varnish.

You recommendation is correct if the user is using cloudways only. 

Any advise? Thanks!

@pyue6299,

I'm sorry but I have no idea. The best way is connecting to hosting service support and ask them do that.
