I’m troubleshooting a caching/performance issue with wpDiscuz + LiteSpeed Cache on my WordPress site.

When wpDiscuz is active, my homepage response sets this cookie even though comments are closed on the homepage and wpDiscuz is not enabled for Pages:

set-cookie: wpdiscuz_nonce_...

The homepage then consistently shows:
x-cache: MISS
server-timing wp-total around 4–5 seconds

When I deactivate wpDiscuz entirely, the homepage becomes very fast and the cache starts behaving normally.

Current wpDiscuz settings:
- Pages removed from wpDiscuz enabled post types/forms
- Homepage comments closed
- Comment List Loading Type: Initiate AJAX loading after page
- Pagination: Load more button
- Guest commenter credentials cookie setting changed from -1 to 0
- LiteSpeed ESI enabled with ESI Nonces: wpdiscuz_*

Question:
How can I prevent wpDiscuz from initializing or setting wpdiscuz_nonce cookies on pages where comments/wpDiscuz are disabled, especially the homepage, archives, and pages?

I only want wpDiscuz active on single blog posts.

Thanks!
