follow up. I have my homepage set to /node/ - when calling request_uri(); on the homepage returns a blank variable.

The front page can be excluded with "/" as the path. Later versions may have a cleaner mechanism, but this works for the time being.

When I enter / for the path, it disables the cache for the entire site, making the module useless. Is there a way to disable the cache for ONLY the front page?

Please do not re-open a closed issue. Also, version 1.0 is no longer supported. Try the 2.x version, which includes a far more robust exclusion method that should be faster, too.
