 * Hi there,
 * once we have full SSL on our own site and have changed the settings at CloudFlare
   to Full SSL, can we remove the plugin safely? I have read a few things about 
   losing sites when you remove the plugin, can you please let me know how it can
   be removed safely?
 * thank you, Paula

 * If you have a valid SSL certificate on the site and you’ve updated your site 
   URLs to be `https://` then you can remove the plugin without any issues. It’ll
   only operate when your site is configured to run on `http://` and receives non-
   SSL traffic.
