‘Test Cache’ failed although everything looks ok

  • Hello,
    Getting the following message after clicking on ‘Test cache’, if you could please check.
    “`Page caching seems not working for both dynamic and static pages.

    Error on dynamic page (https://yermikaplan.com): Seem that your website is not behind Cloudflare. If you have recently enabled the cache or it is your first test, wait about 30 seconds and try again because the changes take a few seconds for Cloudflare to propagate them on the web. If the error persists, request support for a detailed check.

    Error on static resource (https://yermikaplan.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-cloudflare-page-cache/assets/testcache.html): Seem that your website is not behind Cloudflare. If you have recently enabled the cache or it is your first test, wait about 30 seconds and try again because the changes take a few seconds for Cloudflare to propagate them on the web. If the error persists, request support for a detailed check.

    Please check if the page caching is working by yourself by surfing the website in incognito mode ’cause sometimes Cloudflare bypass the cache for cURL requests. Reload a page two or three times. If you see the response header cf-cache-status: HIT, the page caching is working well.`

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @casaenchilches,
    I have said this many times in previous threads that sometimes the Test Cache button can show wrong data. The best way to check is open your website in an incognito window and check the Response header of your first HTML request. If you don’t know how to do that, check the video in the plugin description, it will show you.

    As I can see for yermikaplan.com caching is working perfectly. But there is a header cache-control: max-age=3600 which is either getting added by your server rule or some plugin. You need to remove that. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/jGAsjLL.png

    As for your other website casaenchilches.com:
    1. I don’t think Cloudflare is enabled on this site. As I don’t see Cloudflare nameservers here: https://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/casaenchilches.com
    2. There is also cache-control: max-age=0 which is being added by something. You need to remove that. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/DOCaOXM.png

    Hi @isaumya , sorry for the duplicate thread and thanks for the explanation, if you could please point me where to find the ‘cache-control: max-age=3600’ setting (seems it’s not in .htaccess).

    We are not using any caching plugin at the moment and was hoping if you can please recommend me one that is working the best with ‘WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache’.

    Thanks,

    – If it is not set at the local htaccess level maybe this is getting set at the global server config level. Try talking to your host about it. They will have a better way to search the server and see from where it is coming from.

    – You don’t need any other page caching plugin while using this plugin. But you can use other plugins like Autoptimize, Shortpixel etc for static files (css/js/img etc) optimization.
