Frankly we don’t know yet. As of v1.3 new HTTP header is added when redirection is enabled (Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate) but it’s on cache plugin to honor this setting
This issue is fixed by adding new rule to your .htaccess file before ## LITESPEED WP CACHE PLUGIN section
‘
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* – [E=Cache-Control:vary=%{HTTP:CF-IPCountry}]
