 * 1 – I’m really enjoying it, I just installed it, is it mandatory to have to delete
   the rules in the CF?
 * 2 – I already enabled without deleting the rules, what should I do to make the
   most of the performance without problems with dynamic content?
 * 3 – Does this plugin replace any need for configuration in the CloudFlare panel?
 * 4 – I have a static website at the moment, do you think this plugin can be better
   than the rules I had already applied? Why? I didn’t notice any differences in
   GTMetrix, compared to the rules I entered manually.
 * 5 – One last question, how do you make money? has a Pro version or donation, 
   it seems to be very good to keep for free.
 * The rules I entered manually:
 * [https://community.cloudflare.com/t/w3-total-cache-cache-everything/178330/6?u=ofm1990](https://community.cloudflare.com/t/w3-total-cache-cache-everything/178330/6?u=ofm1990)
 * 1 Rule
    domain.com/wp- (this applies to ALL WP-Instances on your Domain) Disable
   Performance Cache Deception Armor: On Security Level: High
 * 2 Rule
    [https://www.domain.com/*](https://www.domain.com/*) Cache Level: Cache
   Everything Disable Security Browser Cache TTL: a year Edge Cache TTL: a month

    Sorry for so many questions.

 * Hi [@ofmarconi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ofmarconi/),

   > delete the rules in the CF?
 * It is very tricky to answer that question without looking at what other page 
   rules you have. First of all the page rule added by this plugin should be the
   first rule as priority 1. After that, you can add as many rules as you want as
   long as they are not overwriting the cache control or headers or stuff like that.
   You can add page rules for forwarding and other stuff but not related to overwriting
   caching as that is taken care by the plugin.

   > the most of the performance without problems with dynamic content?
 * Read the above answer, please.
 * > 3 – Does this plugin replace any need for configuration in the CloudFlare panel?
 * Mostly yes but you can still go inside the Cloudflare and do fine-tune the configuration
   if you know what you are doing. For example enabling rocket loader, enabling 
   image optimization (if you have pro plan), enabling always SSL, SSL Strict more,
   HTTP 2, HTTP 3, Hotlink protection etc. This plugin only makes sure you take 
   full advantage of Cloudflare caching and best in class CDN you can still do other
   configurations inside Cloudflare.

 * I don’t understand your question. No WordPress site is a static site as it is
   not just planned HTML & CSS. The server is always generating content. In terms
   of testing page load speed, GTmetrix is the worst place to test that. Use webpagetest.
   org where you will be able to see exactly how much time your page is taking to
   load across multiple locations, device, internet speed etc.

 * Inside the plugin settings, on the right-hand side sidebar there is a link for
   donation. There is no pro version of this plugin yet and we are not making any
   money out of it. Not even a penny. Unfortunately. So, donations should be really
   helpful.
 * The page rules you have shown tinkers with performance, edge cache ttl, browser
   cache ttl, performance settings of Cloudflare. You can’t do that as all those
   things are managed by the plugin itself. As I said you can use page rules for
   anything other than tinkering these things. Like setting up a redirect or forwarding.
 * Hope this helps. 🙂
