What's going wrong
Owners who run WordPress caching, CDN or page optimization tools say Aurora Heatmap either stops recording or never starts once those layers are active. Reports name LiteSpeed Cache, Cloudflare with and without Rocket Loader, WP Rocket, WP Fastest Cache and Varnish. Some asked how to make the two work together, while others saw data stop after a cache update. Several sites that had worked earlier went quiet, and owners were left guessing which setting caused it. Agencies and hosting teams that set up many sites would benefit from a tool that tests these combinations and names the conflicting option.
