 * Hey hoping someone can help. Yesterday minify and page cache were working, then
   I enabled cloudflare (and through my host mediatemple), but it seemed to play
   tricks with my site and the site loaded slower. And suddenly minify and page 
   cache kept returning errors until I turned minify Rewrite URL structure off and
   changed page cache to basic. I ended up removing the plugin and disabling cloudflare
   through my host.
 * Today I reinstalled the plugin but minify doesn’t seem to be doing anything, 
   not even removing html comments. It does show the css/js files like so .css?4c9b33
   etc, but yesterday it was combining them.
 * Page cache kept returning the status on not cached, but I read that it shows 
   that if debug is turned on? But then saying that yesterday it showed the status
   cached with debug turned on.
 * I have tried disabling/removing the plugin today and with no joy.
 * Anyone know of a solution?
 * Thanks

 * You should disable minify in W3TC if you’re using any cloudflare performance 
   optimizations. You’ll want to make sure that W3TC is running how you like with
   cloudflare disabled, then enable it afterwards.
