 * Fredrick or anyone who’s managed to setup Cloudflare with the develeopment plugin,
 * Can you explain how this is supposed to work, specifically with WordPress Multisite
   with subdomains? I signed up for cloudflare and added DNS records for *, www,
   mail, the TLD, and all sub-domains. I then added the API key in W3TC and my cloudflare
   email account. What should I put in the Zone field?
 * Is there anything else that needs to be done? I went to the Cloudflare Acceleration&
   Protection Settings and there are a lot of settings. Are those applicable even
   though they are not on W3TCs Network Performance and Security panel?

 * You need to have cloudflare set up for each domain and enter the respective credentials
   for each.
