Edited htaccess and now im getting discourse sso expired error

Support WordPress

I am using my wordpress site to function as an SSO client. Meaning Discourse authenticates all users (logins, registrations, etc…).

After editing my htaccess file to increase my wordpress site speed. I noticed that the following error started to appear when I try and login “discourse_sso_error=expired_nonce”.

I looked through the forum and found out that the issue is probably because of the htaccess file. Although, I want to know what exactly I should remove from it. So that I can keep my site speed as fast as possible while also solving this problem.

Here is the code in htaccess

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Above code looks incomplete. Also, below one looks wrong.

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
# Enable expirations
ExpiresActive On 
# Default directive
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month"
</IfModule>

It will set max-age for 30 days for everything, it will cause terrible browser caching issue with your site. Please avoid. Rest your choice!

  • Instead of using manual .htaccess code, just use one cache plugin and it will handle all common stuffs in better way.
  • Or, implement a CDN to handle GZIP and Browser Cache which you are trying to do using above codes.
