How do I turn off caching for my entire ASP.NET MVC 3 website?

Question

Like the question says, I wanted to know if it\'s possible to turn off caching on all controllers and actions for my entire site. Thanks!

Answer 1

You should add this method to your Global.asax.cs file

protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Response.AddHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate");
            Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "no-cache"); // HTTP 1.0.
            Response.AddHeader("Expires", "0"); // Proxies.
        }

This disables cache on every request (images, html, js etc.).
