Enable Full Page Cache in Magento 2

By default, Full Page Cache (FPC) is disabled after installation, and there is no way to configure it via admin. In this post, I will show you how to enable Full Page Cache in Magento 2.

In order to enable Full Page Cache in Magento 2, you will need to edit app/etc/env.php file in your project, look up the cache_types key and its children:

'cache_types' =>
    array (
        'config' => 1,
        'layout' => 1,
        'block_html' => 1,
        'collections' => 1,
        'db_ddl' => 1,
        'eav' => 1,
        'full_page' => 0,
        'translate' => 1,
        'config_integration' => 1,
        'config_webservice' => 1,
        'config_integration_api' => 1,
    ),
);

Notice the child key full_page, it is the config key to enable or disable the Full Page Cache in Magento 2.

So, we only need to change value to 1 to enable it.

'cache_types' =>
    array (
        'config' => 1,
        'layout' => 1,
        'block_html' => 1,
        'collections' => 1,
        'db_ddl' => 1,
        'eav' => 1,
        'full_page' => 1,
        'translate' => 1,
        'config_integration' => 1,
        'config_webservice' => 1,
        'config_integration_api' => 1,
    ),
);

After that, make sure to execute the cache clear command:

$ bin/magento cache:clear

Now, go to Admin and access the following path, from sidebar select Stores > Configuration, from left panel, scroll down to Advanced section and select System. Take a look at the right panel and scroll down to Full Page Cache section.

As you enable the FPC option, it should not be disabled, and you can select the cache option you want to configure for your Magento 2 site.

Have fun!
