Hi,

Cloudflare by default does not cache HTML pages. It only caches static files (images, CSS, JS etc.)

Cloudflare only caches HTML if you instruct it to do so, via Page Rules, Cache Rules (beta), Workers etc. Are you using one of these features? If so, please post details so a member of this community may be able t help you.

From the page I linked to above:

Cloudflare does not cache the resource when:

  • The Cache-Control header is set to private, no-store, no-cache, or max-age=0.

Just make sure your origin is returning 404s with one of these Cache-Control settings. If for some reason you cannot change the Cache-Control header, you should try a Cache Rule (beta) where you can set specific instructions depending on the response HTTP status code.
