Litespeed cache plugin messes with website header

    My website has a weird thing going on. For some reason, in the first 1-2 seconds while the website is loading, the header is looking really messed up before the preloader animation and the CSS load in the page. After these load, it comes back to normal, but I am sure this styling error of the CSS is losing me some potential customers. I am certain it comes from the Litespeed cache plugin, as I have disabled all plugins except Elementor, and when I activated it only with Litespeed cache plugin, it started doing it again. The thing is, that I don’t want to disable it, as it helps with the speed of the website, but I would also like to have this issue fixed. The idea is that this error loads for the first instance of the user, meaning if someone new joins the website for the first time, will see it only one time. After he switches pages on the website, he will no longer see this styling error. This also happens in the incognito tab every time.

    I have also added the /?LSCWP_CTRL=before_optm extension at the end of the website and the issue no longer appears.

    I’m having the same issue, a recent update caused my editor to completely break (isolated to find LiteSpeed was the culprit). As suggested above, adding “/” to the UCSS exlude URL didn’t work, however I fixed it by going to Cache > Object > and turning off Object Cache.

    I’m assuming a recent Elementor update conflicts with this setting.

    Also – I was having an issue where the Global Settings in Elementor weren’t being applied to my site, but was able to fix that by simply navigating to the Global Settings (from the editor) and that refreshed the settings. I didn’t need to save or confirm anything, once I clicked the Global Settings, it was automatically fixed and I could close and return to the editor.

    Hello.

    I have tried adding the / in the ucss exclude URI and nothing changed. I have then tried disabling the object cache, still nothing happened. I don’t know what to do more. I have ran out of options…

    After re-reading your first entry, I think the issue might be with “Guest Mode”. This creates a version of the page that is really fast for first-time visitors, but can also break some elements on your site (for me it has been elements relying on JavaScript or other interactive elements). This is probably why you’re seeing issues with your first visits / incognito visits.

    You can turn off Guest Mode (and Guest optimization) in the General settings.
