Understanding Cache Behavior for Logged-In Users
Not every page should be cached the same way. Logged-in sessions, cart flows, account dashboards, and personalized content require careful handling.
Key Principles
- Separate public content caching from session-specific content.
- Review account, checkout, and form-related pages for personalization.
- Test behavior with both guest and authenticated sessions.
- Document any exclusions so future changes do not accidentally reverse them.
Why It Matters
Incorrect cache behavior can create privacy issues as well as display problems. Performance must never come at the cost of user data exposure.
