    @bikerbloke Thank you for posting your topic. Since you mentioned Cloudflare, could you confirm if you set up the experimental feature and enabled it?

    There is no option for experimental for me? Running Version 1.1.1

    @bikerbloke We’ve included an experimental solution (for a WAF issue) that allows you to keep using the plugin while still being fully protected by Cloudflare.

    Because it’s still experimental, it takes a couple of steps to enable this:

    1. Add define( ‘WEBSTORIES_DEV_MODE’, true ); to your **wp-config.php** file
    (somewhere before the /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */) line)
    2. In your WordPress admin, go to **Stories** -> **Experiments**
    3. Toggle the **WAF Compatibility** checkbox and save the changes.
    4. Create a new story!

    Could you try this and let us know if this works for you?

    Meanwhile, we’re working hard on stabilizing this feature in time for our 1.2.0 release so you don’t have to do these steps anymore.

    Thanks for your cooperation and patience!

    Tried adding

    define( ‘WEBSTORIES_DEV_MODE’, true );

    to end of config file as doesnt say “That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing.”

    Still Does Not bring up the experiments for me

    At the end of the config file would be too late. If anything, try it at the beginning.

    If that still doesn’t work, I recommend simply disabling the Cloudflare firewall for now for all /wp-json/web-stories/v1/ requests.
