Description

Mostly the same question here, I just haven't figured out how to "uncache" subpaths.

I mostly want my other github page subpaths to avoid caching (they are subpaths of this main site).

#508 (comment)

Operations you have already tried

I have tried adding some to my config, but I don't quite get how it works.

Anything else?

• PWA: Do not cache subprojects #508

Ah, looks like I missed an old issue.

Adding a configuration file for PWA's denyUrls could be a candidate for a new feature.

Personally, I'd prefer to add the config file under _data/ rather than _config.yml, so that _config.yml doesn't get overstuffed as the project grows.

I don't have a preference for config or _data, just the ability as it affects my subpaths. I misunderstood and thought it was implemented and I just couldn't figure it out. Is it OK to reopen the old issue?

Is it OK to reopen the old issue?

Shouldn't have to, that issue was poorly described and at the time I skipped it because I didn't know what he was trying to say.

Hi @clearbluejar, I'd like to know what exactly you mean by "subpath". A specific list would be appreciated, please.

[clearbluejar]

Hi. The issue occurs because I use subpaths of my github.io domain for different websites cache according the rules setup under the primary site.

• https://clearbluejar.github.io/ main blog site with chirpy, caches and updates when changes occur.
• https://clearbluejar.github.io/ghidriff another web site hosted on github pages for a completely different purpose.

This issue is that all the pages under https://clearbluejar.github.io/ghidriff will be cached according the caching of the main blog site (and there is no "update" feature for the subpages).

I want to avoid caching specific subpaths:

• https://clearbluejar.github.io/ghidriff/*
• https://clearbluejar.github.io/anothersite_github_site/*

Thanks for adding the details, that makes sense.
