On dispatcher URL- when we change language from the hamburger menu, then the page content is getting loaded according to the chosen language.
But when we go back to previous language page by clicking on the browser back button, then the page content is not updated, only the URL gets updated. (no network calls.)
Note: I am using language navigation core component.
The issue occurs because the browser serves the previous page from its cache without making a new network request, leading to outdated content.
To fix this, proper cache-control headers (no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate) should be set on language switch pages to force a reload.
Try below approaches:
1. Add this to your Apache/Dispatcher configuration (vhost.conf or dispatcher.conf)
<LocationMatch "^/content/your-site/.*$">
Header always set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, private"
Header always set Pragma "no-cache"
Header always set Expires "0"
</LocationMatch>
2. Ensure Apache mod_headers is enabled On the server:
a2enmod headers
service apache2 restart
<LocationMatch "^/content/your-site/([a-z]{2})/.*$">
Header always set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, private"
</LocationMatch>
