Web template confusion (can't turn off buffering)

[sahsanu]

As you are using Nginx+Apache2:

Web Template APACHE2
Uses the templates located in /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/php-fpm/

Backend Template PHP-FPM
Uses the templates located in /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/php-fpm/

Proxy Template
Uses the templates located in /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/nginx/

So take a look to this post, it could be useful for your use case:

I made changes to .css but it does not take effect?

I don’t use Apache but you could use something like this: Note 1: In these examples we are removing caching, only for these extensions; htm, html, css, js (you can modify them to suit your needs). Note 2: The extensions added, in this example; htm, html, css, js MUST be removed from the Proxy Extensions field: [imagen] newtemplate.tpl server { listen %ip%:%proxy_port%; server_name %domain_idn% %alias_idn%; error_log /var/log/%web_system%/domains/%domain%.erro…

Note: In above post, newtemplate.{tpl,stpl} must be located in /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/nginx/

I searched here, and (again) found How to disable Fast CGI Cache for specific page? but I don’t see how to apply that solution. For one thing, it refers to /home/admin/conf/web/domain.com/nginx.fastcgi_cache.conf that I can’t find. It says to add “ set $no_cache 1;”

That’s because you are not using Nginx standalone so you don’t use fast_cgi cache provided by Nginx.
