 * Thank you for your fantastic free plugin!
 * If I understand correctly, by adding Italian and English, I can have a multilingual
   banner that displays the text in the language selected by the browser, without
   using geo-targeting.
 * I have a site with WPML, in Italian and English.
 * Faz Cookie > Settings > Languages: Italian and English (default English).
 * Faz Cookie > Cookie Banner > Geo-targeting: I leave “Geo-source not configured”
   and all presets disabled.
 * Faz Cookie > Cookie Banner > Content: I can see the correct text for both Italian
   and English.
 * On the front end, I always see the banner in the default language (English), 
   even when using the Italian versions of Chrome or Firefox.
 * How can I fix this? Thanks!

 * I discovered that the banner always appeared in English because I had enabled:
 * Faz Cookie > Settings > Cache Compatibility Mode
 * If I disable it, the banner returns to being multilingual.
 * But since I’ll need to use a caching plugin (Litespeed), I’m wondering if the
   plugin invalidates the cache…
 * I read that enabling this option means “the plugin stops emitting no-cache/no-
   store headers and the DONOTCACHEPAGE constant for anonymous visitors, so the 
   static HTML is cached and the banner runs entirely on the client side from the
   consent cookie.”
 * How can I have both cacheable pages and a multilingual banner?

 * Ciao Diego! 🙂
 * Thanks for the details, and for narrowing it down to Cache Compatibility Mode.
 * Here is what was happening. Cache Compatibility Mode makes the banner render 
   identically for every visitor on a URL, so an aggressive full-page cache can 
   store it safely. To guarantee that, it stops varying the banner by request state,
   and it was treating WPML as a request-state signal, so it fell back to your default
   language (English). That was too conservative: when WPML keeps the language in
   the URL (a language directory like /it/ and /en/, or a separate domain per language,
   which is the usual setup) each language already has its own URL, so a cache stores
   one entry per language and there is nothing unsafe about showing the right language.
 * I have fixed that. In the next release, with WPML in directory or domain mode
   the banner shows the visitor’s language even with Cache Compatibility Mode on.
   Only WPML’s “language as a URL parameter” mode still falls back to the default,
   because a query string is not a reliable cache key.
 * On LiteSpeed: you do not need to choose. The plugin already integrates with LiteSpeed
   Cache. It purges the LiteSpeed cache automatically whenever you save a banner,
   cookie, category or setting, so a change is never served stale. With WPML in 
   directory or domain mode LiteSpeed caches each language URL separately, so every
   cached page carries its own language’s banner. You can keep Cache Compatibility
   Mode off today, as you already did, and LiteSpeed will work fine; once the update
   lands you will be able to turn Cache Compatibility Mode back on too if you want
   the extra cache coverage.
 * I will post here when the release with the WPML fix is out.
