If making changes to the HTML (or the data that drives it) immediately shows up on the page, then it's not serving the cached version.

Is there any other way to check, because if changes, it shows immediately. I also see the cached html files. Can you please help me regarding this.

I unfortunately don't have the bandwidth to help debug your code.

Make sure you've set up the URL rewriting properly for your Apache/nginx setup 👍

Here is the NGINX File:

server {
    listen      172.XXXXXXX:80;
    server_name oyebesmartest.com www.mydomain.com;
    error_log  /var/log/apache2/domains/mydomain.com.error.log error;

    location / {
        proxy_pass      http://172XXXXXX.183:8080;

            try_files      $uri $uri/ /page-cache/$uri.html /page-cache/$uri.json /index.php?$query_string;
        }
    }

    location = / {
    try_files /page-cache/pc__index__pc.html /index.php?$query_string;
}

    location /error/ {
        alias   /home/admin/web/mydomain.com/document_errors/;
    }

    location @fallback {
        proxy_pass      http://1XXXXXX:8080;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht    {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.svn/  {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.git/  {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.hg/   {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.bzr/  {return 404;}

    include /home/admin/conf/web/nginx.mydomain.conf*;

@theankitjais Please verify that on the server that the files are being cached to the public/page-cache folder. If that is occurring on each request that is processed by Laravel, please close this bug and open a Stackoverflow question as to how to setup Ngnix properly in your case to serve those files. You can add the following to your HTML to know when the source was generated:
