Comment (by dannythedog):
I’m seeing the same behavior on my site.
I’m running WordPress on a VPS with Nginx FastCGI cache and Cloudflare in
front. Full page cache is handled at the server level, not by a plugin.
Site Health still reports “Page cache is not detected but the server
response time is OK”, even though TTFB is around 50ms after enabling
FastCGI cache.
The HTML response from my origin includes a header like:
X-Cache-Status: HIT
but this header is not part of the list that
WP_Site_Health::get_page_cache_headers() checks for. It would be helpful
if Site Health could also treat headers like X-Cache / X-Cache-Status as a
signal that full page cache is enabled, or provide an easier way (filter)
to add custom cache headers for this test.
This setup follows the official performance documentation for server-side
caching (Nginx FastCGI cache), but the Site Health check still looks “red”
which is confusing for users.
