    Hi there, I’m running Redis object cache connecting using W3’s object cache.

    Query Monitor only states that a persistant object cache plugin is in use, and Test passed in the plugin settings.

    But I need some more information about if the caching is actually working, and working well.

    Can you recommend a site to test if object cache is actually working?

    Hello @carsten-lund

    Thank you for reaching out.

    You can check this in the source of your website. At the bottom of the HTML, you can see the W3TC snippet. There you can find information about caching on your website, for example:

    <!--
Performance optimized by W3 Total Cache. Learn more: https://www.boldgrid.com/w3-total-cache/

Object Caching 654/696 objects using Redis

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks!

    Hi there, I’m using View Source code in Chrome, but see nothing about “Performance optimized by W3 Total Cache” I even copied the code to my text editor to search for it, nothing?

    Hello @carsten-lund

    Are you using HTML minify in W3TC or any other form of HTML minify which may remove comments in the source?

    Thanks!

    You were right, Auto Minify was activated in CloudFlare, after deactivation
    the comments appear.
