 *** match_path
     Only the request's path match the condition will be cached. Ex. =/= means all request need to be cached because all request's path must start with =/=
 
+*** match_methods
+    By default, only =GET= and =POST= methods are cached. If you would like to cache other methods as well you can configure here which methods should be cached, e.g.: =GET HEAD POST=.
+
+    To be able to distinguish different POST requests, it is advisable to include the body hash in the cache key, e.g.: ={http.request.method} {http.request.host}{http.request.uri.path}?{http.request.uri.query} {http.request.contentlength} {http.request.bodyhash}=

 *** default_max_age
     The cache's expiration time.
