Use The Tool

What this tool helps you check

Inputs

Enter a public store URL. The tool checks public homepage cache signals and the common checkout path.

Output

Review homepage cache-control, checkout cache-control, CDN indicators, and whether the checkout path was reachable.

How To Read It

Homepage caching is often expected, while checkout caching should be conservative. Missing headers require confirmation in the host or CDN dashboard.

Follow-Up

Confirm cart, checkout, account, nonce, and payment callback exclusions with the site owner before changing production cache rules.

This tool uses bounded public HTTP checks and does not inspect private admin pages, databases, server files, or dashboards.

Limitations

Use the result as planning guidance

  • Reviews public headers only.
  • Does not prove private cache configuration.
  • Does not test logged-in, cart, or payment sessions.
