Hi,
I am having an issue with “Leverage Browser Caching” when I test my website. Browser cache is enabled in the W3 Cache settings, but my score is consistently F 30/100.
Any ideas? Thanks so much.

I ran a scan on the URL you sent over privately, and here’s what I see:
It looks like it’s giving you a lower score because the CSS and media files are mostly set to expire after only 1 day. By default, W3 Total Cache sets these files to expire after 1 year.
You can check this setting in Performance > Browser Caching:
It’s also possible that your CDN (CloudFlare) is replacing these values from their settings in W3 Total Cache. Here’s some more information about setting the expires headers from CloudFlare.
