It seems proxy_cache_key is set to default, meaning that the cookie is
not included. So everyone will see the same cached responses for GET
requests, whether they log in or not.
try something like:
proxy_cache_key "$host$request_uri$cookie_sessioncookie";
where "user" is replaced with whatever your session cookie is.
This still may not be usable, though, as you have things configured to
cache all pages for at least 1 minute. That means users will
potentially make a post and then not see any change in the forum
pages. If the forum pages need to be truly dynamic, caching for logged
in users might not be an option.
