Like some other worker trying cahe your site + railgun. If you have any sorts of caching enabled in the hosting level please disable that so that this plugin just directly access your cloudflare account and nothing else.

No intermedeary. Just disconnect cloudflare from your siteground hosting completely and use your cloudflare details inside this plugin only. * Currently you are not even using cloudflare. Your name server is pointing to siteground. You need to create a cloudflare account, point your name server to cloudflare and use that cloudflare account with this plugin. * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/17Jxr7M) * Thread Starter [stvinmotion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stvinmotion/) * (@stvinmotion) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-status-dynamic-2/#post-15472927) * Thank you [@isaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * Success! I pointed my nameserves to CF and disabled any Siteground integration. It seems to be working now, CF-Cache-status: HIT on 2nd refresh. * I had to use Strip response cookies * Would really appreciate if you could verify that things are looking well, or in case you have further vital checkpoints as “point the nameservers to CF”. but for the time being, I am happy camper! )) * Plugin Contributor [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * (@isaumya) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-status-dynamic-2/#post-15473031) * Hi, yes as far as I can see the Cloudflare cache is now working properly on your site: * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/U0aLLaN) * But I am still seeing `x-proxy-cache: HIT` which means some server level page caching is still active. Make sure it is disabled. [https://i.imgur.com/6uelgGu.jpeg](https://i.imgur.com/6uelgGu.jpeg) * Moreover I generally don’t suggest using the stripe response cookies options, rather it is best to check which plugins are adding those custom cookies and try not using those plugins. As you are using a plugin which is constantly adding custom cookies to each page request and then you stripe the response cookies, it might not work properly. * Finally I will also recommend you to enable the option for adding caching rule for the static files inside the plugin settings under the cache tab.

I reactivated the plugins but get an error * ``` Page caching seems not working for both dynamic and static pages.

If you are using Litespeed Server, please disable the option Overwrite the cache-control header for WordPress's pages using web server rules, purge the cache and retry.

When you will add that rule the Cloudflare cache will also immediately stop working as you are setting the `cache-control` as `private`. So, now you have 2 choices, either you can keep the server level cache enabled and just deal with it and do not add the htaccess rule you have mentioned above or shit to a much better managed hosting company like BigScoots for example. * Thread Starter [stvinmotion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stvinmotion/) * (@stvinmotion) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-status-dynamic-2/#post-15480376) * OK thanks for letting me know, I kept insisting with Siteground and the senior tech team supposedly disabled the dynamic caching on server level. * > `I reviewed your request and as pert it disabled the dynamic caching for the > stvinmotion.com site on server level.

Begin with both plugin disabled. You need to make sure that the mu plugin is there for the wp rocket disable cache. Once the mu- plugin is there and active then enable wp rocket plugin and check if it is creating the `advanced-cache.php` file. If not, keep wp rocket enabled and then enable this plugin and set things up as you want and begin using cloudflare caching. * Thread Starter [stvinmotion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stvinmotion/) * (@stvinmotion) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-status-dynamic-2/#post-15484408) * Both Disabled. I enabled WP Rocket – verified that there’s no Advanced-cache. php file created. I enabled Super Page Cache and still getting the error: * Page caching is working for static page but seems not working for dynamic pages. * Error on dynamic page ([https://www.stvinmotion.com](https://www.stvinmotion.com)): Invalid Cache-Control response header.

Check what is adding that. If you have added the mu-plugin of wp rocket and edited the mu-plugin code to add the 2 lines mentioned above then wp rocket si not supposed to generated the `advanced-cache.php` file. As generally `cache- control: max-age=0` is added by wp rocket. - This reply was modified 4 years, 2 months ago by [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/). * Thread Starter [stvinmotion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stvinmotion/) * (@stvinmotion) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-status-dynamic-2/#post-15490288) * Caching works now )) * I approached WP Rocket’s support: * “we set the cache-control max-age=0 value for the nHTML file through the set of ModExpires rules we add in the htaccess file.
