Hello friend, I am having trouble with my domain always hitting my server through (free) Cloudflare as: cf-cache-status: DYNAMIC

All other aspects of mt site that should be cached through Cloudflare are showing proper in developer tools as: cf-cache-status: HIT

I have been all over the internet researching for weeks, have tried nearly every Cloudflare page rule configuration imaginable and I am still at a loss.

I have tried every other avenue I know of to find answers, If Powered Cache developers or anyone else following this thread can provide any insight I would be truly grateful.

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

Hi @shirtguy72,

If you are seeing cf-cache-status: HIT on the HTTP header that means the page is cached on the CF edge. So it doesn’t’ even hit your server therefore, PoweredCache is not serving the cache.

CF shouldn’t cache HTML resources automatically, are you using “Cache Everything” rule?

I have Cloudflare set as: Respect Existing Headers and Page rules are as follows…
http://*vintageheavymetal.com/wp-*
Cache Level: Bypass, Disable Performance

http://*vintageheavymetal.com/*preview=true*
Cache Level: Bypass, Disable Performance

http://*vintageheavymetal.com/*
Cache Level: Bypass

When I check in dev tools my domain itself receives cf-cache-status: DYNAMIC GET 200

Theme files, images ect all seem fine: cf-cache-status: HIT GET 200

Everything also receives: x-proxy-cache: MISS (I have no idea what that means)

I test my site on a low end Android 4g mobile device, without Powered Cache avtive (same CF configurations) my site loads horribly. With Powered Cache active (same CF configurations) my site loads lightning fast on my “garbage” android device.

When you see x-proxy-cache: MISS header, it means the response is proxied from the origin server.

If you want to see HIT status, I think you should remove the following rule:
```
http://*vintageheavymetal.com/*
Cache Level: Bypass
```
Based on the PoweredCache footprints on your website, I can say that, the page generation time is pretty high – https://cloudup.com/cY5JzZWywGD

I’m marking this topic as resolved, since it’s not really related to PoweredCache itself.

Cheers,
