Asked by ankit-yadav
Hi everyone,
I would like to know how can I enable the if modified since header on mu Ubuntu 14.04 server, I have checked via http://www.feedthebot.com/tools/if-modified/ and it clearly shows this feature is not enabled on my server.
The main reason I am curious to enable the feature is control the way search engines crawl my website.

The if-modified-since conditional header is implemented by mod_cache for apache. While not enabled by default I believe it should be included by default and can be enabled with
followed by an apache restart.
