Wordpress How to bypass ( exclude ) wordpress homepage from redis cache

Hi there,

I am trying to exclude ( bypass ) the wordpress homepage of a site from cache in redis.

I was trying to edit the configuration file adding this code:

---

if ($request_uri ~* "/index|/index\.html") {
set $skip_cache 1;
}

into this:

in /usr/local/nginx/conf/wpincludes/myDomain.com/rediscache_myDomain.com.conf

but it is not working, the front page it is still loading from the cache.

Can anyone suggest how to resolve this ?

I mention that the code above it is working to exclude ( bypass ) other urls than the index homepage.
