 * Hey
 * How do I set/configure this plugin with cloudflare?
 * At cloudflare dashboard, there are so many options there, and on this plugin,
   there are some options too, which looks similar with that of cloudflare.
 * Do I need to make any configuration with cloudflare apart from changing my dns
   ns record, or should I just register at cloudflare, change my NS record, get 
   an API key to integrate this plugin with it, and make the necessary settings 
   on this plugin?

 * Agbams,
 * Install the W3TC Cloudflare extension, then go to cloudflare and get your API
   code, its in your user area, paste this along with your email address for Cloudflare
   and the domain you wish to use it on into the W3TC extension settings area, hit
   save and you are done.

 * Thanks for your response. But I want to know, do I have to make any settings 
   on cloudflare dashboard, like enabling caching and lots of them?
