prorank_get_cache_stats()

echo 'Total cached pages: ' . $stats['total_pages'];
echo 'Cache size: ' . $stats['size_mb'] . ' MB';

Troubleshooting

Cache not working?

• Check if you're logged in (cache is disabled for logged-in users by default)
• Verify your server supports the required PHP extensions
• Check for conflicts with other caching plugins
• Review the debug log at /wp-content/prorank-cache.log

Brotli not compressing?

ProRank automatically falls back to our cloud compression service if your server doesn't support Brotli. Check the response headers for X-ProRank-Compression to see which method is being used.
