Please remember to stay on-topic guys. 🙂

Alkir

katos I don't agree with you because this is not a feature to extend, I just wanted to ask how to properly enable this feature

Staszek

Are you sure this feature is among in base Flarum features?🙂 I think it is not, and you need to have an extension for it. But I may be mistaken.

Alkir I saw it already at first time you posted it. There is no point to repeat it.
This header probably has to be set in php code. Web server may set it if browser request some static file, like image or html. But if you have json response, or other dynamic content, then web server will probably not detect last modification.

Alkir This is not a feature included in Flarum at all. Even if it exists within the realm of possibility, requiring effort to add it to Flarum like you're asking is going to require additional code, so this belongs in our Dev tag.

Please don't argue with our mods in discussions. If you have a problem with how moderation is done, you can post a new discussion in our Meta tag, request a private discussion from me or find me on our Discord server. I will be happy to hear your feedback, but please try to trust that our mods know where discussions belong.

Alkir which resources would you like to add this header to ? Discussion, User, homepage ? These will all require a different logic to get the value of the modified time. Are you looking for guidance on how to create an extension for this ?

For static resources that don't go through Flarum this is setup at the webserver level.

Depending on the problem you're trying to solve, maybe the existing sitemap extension(s) will be a good alternative ?

I probably explain badly, try to read something about Last-Modified,

Please be respectful to others by providing the information asked for. Just one word in response to a very elaborate question in order to help you isn't really working in your favor. Clark asked amongst others whether you want to create an extension.

Why do you need the Last-Modified header? If you configure caching with Apache it will use the correct headers already, most probably the ETag, which is a better alternative and allows features like weak validation.

Alkir

matteocontrini Since it speeds up indexation in search engines, and also reduces the load on the server
