That’s wonderful, thank you! 🙏🏻
I understand, thanks for the info.
I Saved the Permalinks and then Flushed the Redis cache, and then navigated a couple of Admin pages before going to the Super Page Cache dashboard. When I clicked Test Cache, it says “Cloudflare integration has an issue.” instead of “No route found”. Obviously it is working though. Not a problem.

Hi,
The cache seems to be working fine via Cloudflare, I am seeing cf-cache-status: HIT when I inspect a page without the ?swcfpc=1 token and BYPASS when it does.
“Do you have Redis or Memcached configured on your server (some hosts like Kinsta, WP Engine, or SiteGround enable this by default)?”
Yes, I have Redis Object Cache by Till Kruss installed.
“Do you have any other caching plugins installed (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, WP Super Cache)?”
No, the only caching plug-in I have is Super Page Cache v5.3.1. There is an option in DIVI 5 theme which caches CSS which you can clear, but can’t disable. I know Elegant Themes recently said Divi 5 supports the popular caching plug-ins, and apparently Super Page Cache is on their list (awesome!):
https://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/divi-resources/new-cache-improvements-for-divi-5
At server level, the only other caching provided is PHP’s Opcache (plus Redis of course).
I have the settings “Automatically purge the OPcache when cache is purged” and “Automatically purge the object cache when cache is purged” both enabled.
Thanks for the confirmation and for the proposed UI improvements. Very much appreciated.
Further to above, I am still seeing the message “No route was found matching the URL and request method.” Resaving the permalinks doesn’t seems to fix it although it did the first time I tried.
Re step 4, I can confirm no errors in the Cloudflare event logs and not seeing anything relating to /wp-json/Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Breadcrumbs Divi Module] PLUGIN BREAKS WITH DIVI 5Divi 5 now features a new Breadcrumbs module which has recently been added. It seems to work very well in testing, so this plug-in may no longer be required. Very useful it was too.

In reply to: [Image Carousel Module for Divi] Divi 5 CompatibilityAs a workaround, I was able to recreate the Image Carousel Module using the new Divi 5 Group Carousel module.
Hi, further to last, I went to check Step 4 but found that the plug-in has reverted back to the original error message when trying the Test Cache button:
No route was found matching the URL and request method.It seems to need the Permalinks resaving but I just tried doing this again and this time it doesn’t fix the error message from showing, despite it seeming to work yesterday.

Thank you very much. I resaved the permalinks in step 1 and the error message has now changed to the following, although the settings still say Cloudflare is connected using the API token:
Cloudflare integration has an issue.The CF caching seems to work when I look for the headers, TBH I have another site that always says this message despite apparently working as well.
Re step 2, I checked and the json is visible.
Step 3, I don’t have a security plugin enabled.
Step 4, sorry I will need to check this tomorrow.
Step 5, yes they are enabled.
Many thanks!
Thank you, that fixed jt. Also installed Optimole, will clearing the cache affect Optimole? Thank you!
Hi,
Sorry, which option do you mean, Browser caching?
Or is it “Overwrite the cache-control header for WordPress’s pages using web server rules”? I do have that enabled already and I’m using Apache not Nginx, but the link to the rules is missing where it says:
”Read here if you use Apache (htaccess): for overwriting to work, make sure that the rules added by Super Page Cache for Cloudflare are placed at the bottom of the htaccess file. If they are present BEFORE other caching rules of other plugins, move them to the bottom manually.”
Thank you. I was reading through the FAQ again and I was thinking for pages that CF haven’t yet cached that I might benefit from the Fallback Cache to avoid that long pause of up to 30 seconds on uncached pages.
I did a quick check and the Smartcrawl sitemaps list:
Site A: 144 pages and posts
Site B: 132 posts and pagesDo you think it would be worthwhile?
Another question if I may? I noticed in GTMetrix that whilst the page shows as cached, every CSS, JS and image asset except the actual HTML always shows “cf-cache-status REVALIDATED” which I’ve never noticed before. I know it means that has still been served by the CF cache, but is that normal?
Last question! Is there a way to exclude a path from the preloader or could you add a field in the settings to do it? I have an external third party gallery that isn’t powered by WordPress in a subfolder that has its own sitemaps and wanted to make sure that the crawler wasn’t wasting time/resources crawling that section of the site?
Many thanks!

Thanks for the link, that was a really interesting read! I honestly never realised those aspects. I think everyone just assumes that they will cache your pages as you would expect so yes, it is a little unsettling that they may not on quieter sites. I’m happy with the caching. It’s just good to know roughly how many pages are cached. I now use the option to Cron the preloader twice a day to be on the safe side, I’ll explain below
I use your plugin with Divi Theme and without it, the loading times are just terrible. One of my 2 sites let’s call it site A uses more CPU than the other Site B with uncached pages taking up to 28 seconds to load despite the server doing nothing, both don’t allow members or comments (8 core NVME VPS, 8GB RAM, Redis, MariaDB, PHP-FPM) but I’ve yet to track down the actual root cause even using all the usual methodology. I found the preloader useful as the cached pages load very fast. So as long as they are cached, that’s fine.

Hi again,
Thanks I understand. When you open that link though and it shows you a list of all pages that have been cached, there is a count at the top. Is it possible to make use of that count? Where does the data come from?🙂
