# Using mod_cache shows top page only

 * I’ve been struggling for weeks trying to get mod_cache/disk to work. I don’t 
   want to use a plugin for this, I’d like to accomplish the cache at the server
   level.
 * This is my cache setup. Something is not right in this because when I enable 
   it, it speeds up the site a lot, it also pretty much only shows the top page.
 * For example, you can see the top page but any other page/menu/post you click 
   on, still shows the top page. I’ve found many posts and articles but none seem
   to fix this problem and almost all of the replies are slight variations that 
   don’t change anything.
 * I’m showing the other section I’m using, mod_expires because I have to consider
   that maybe the reason is related to a combination with caching. Once I comment
   caching, things work again.
 * I have also tried enabling the cache and disabling mod_expire but as soon as 
   the cache is enabled, the problem shows up.
 * Can anyone see what I am doing wrong in this?

 * With all of the folks using WP, no one seems to have any input on something like
   this. Where can someone get help then?

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for offering your setup.
 * Same thing happens or maybe a little different as now the entire page turns white/
   blank.
 * The Divi menus and logo stay but everything else on the site goes blank.
    Sure
   would love to take advantage of caching.
