Do Not Cache User Agents doesn't work. Cache hit.

Hi, I'm trying not to cache pages based on User-Agent Googlebot. It simply doesn't work, and cache is always hit.

user@user-MacBook-Pro ~ % curl -I -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)" https://mydomainname.com/nice-to-meet-you/

LiteSpeed Cache Settings v6.5.0.1

@ovchynnikov I see you wrote LiteSpeed Cache Settings v6.5.0.1 do you mean that plugin version is 6.5.0.1?
I made a test with latest version(7.8.1) and is working as expected. Tried on a test site, with the curl command you sent

[ovchynnikov]

yes, we are still using v6.5.0.1 version of the plugin. I'll update this issue after upgrading to 7.8.1.
Thanks
