Our engineer pushed a fix for this. If you’re still having issues for some reason, however, removing and then re-installing the plugin should also work.
Thanks for the reports!

In reply to: How to speed up your siteHi,
I just need to clarify that adding the CloudFlare plugin (or activating through W3TC) still requires signing up for the CloudFlare service for us to speed up your site and cache your static content. There’s definitely no real conflicts with using those plugins with CloudFlare, though.
Some tips if you signup for CloudFlare

In reply to: WordPress Site won't refreshHi,
What happens with the behavior if you temporarily deactivate CloudFlare under settings->Pause CloudFlare (wait about ten minutes before checking) ? Does the behavior continue with CloudFlare off? If yes, then it is actually a server issue or plugin issue.
Try running a test on webpagetest.org with CloudFlare on and then off. It would be interesting to see what’s happening in the waterfall with the service on and off.

In reply to: WordPress Site won't refresh“I’m now using the Cloudflare plugin instead to cache my site. “
Just a quick note that the CloudFlare plugin isn’t actually what caches your site (still requires using our service by changing nameservers).Did you try going clearing your CloudFlare cache or going to Development Mode first? If you made any changes to the static content site at all, you would want to do this.
Note: Including some tips about troubleshooting CloudFlare problems so you can see if it is us or not. If you pause CloudFlare and the problem still happens, then the issue is with something directly on your sever.

In reply to: WordPress Admin and CloudflareHi,
I just took a look at your Page Rules and don’t see anything that should be impacting the wp-admin section. I made a slight change to your wp-admin rule to see if it helps. Can you let me know if that helps with the login now?

In reply to: WordPress Admin and CloudflareOk, great. Definitely let us know what happens.
I’m just adding some quick troubleshooting tips that will make it easier to know if CloudFlare is causing an issue with a plugin or other. If you temporarily turn us off & the behavior goes away, then it is quite likely we are doing something.

In reply to: WordPress Admin and Cloudflare“I just tried cloudflare myself, but had to drop them because I couldn’t log into my c-panel. “
Any of these should work for getting to cPanel (we wouldn’t impact the user name and password for your cPanel login, however).
Please try any of the following:
cpanel.yourdomain.com
direct.yourdomain.com/cpanel
direct.yourdomain.com:2082
“Something on there end prevented any CSS from loading and anything I clicked took me back to the login page. “
This actually sounds like one one of two things:
1. Auto Minify was causing an issue.
2. You had multiple minify options turned on (such as a caching plugin and CloudFlare’s Auto Minify option).“Weird thing is I actually noticed in increase in my page load times.”
Definitely unusual. What were you using to test?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress Admin and Cloudflare“I turned off auto minify and rocket loader. Seems to work except for upload sizes. “
Doesn’t sound like a Rocket Loader or Auto Minify issue. Are you still having issues with this?
“Seems to work except for upload sizes.”
Uploads are limited, unfortunately, if it is being proxied by us. It doesn’t look like we’re touching uploads.drabblecast.org?Hi,
Thanks for posting those IPs. I’m going to make sure that they are added to our Macro list.

In reply to: [Suffusion] [Theme: Suffusion] Some sharing icons missingThat is likely be caused by Auto Minify Try turning this off in your CloudFlare Performance settings (settings->CloudFlare settings->Performance settings).
You should then report the bug here.
Note: I would try turning off Rocket Loader first. This is generally cause of the behaviors you’re seeing & not Auto Minify.

In reply to: No Thumb on FacebookJust a quick note that we have fixed the debugger issue with Facebook returning intermittent 503 response codes (if you come back to CloudFlare). If you’re still having issues with the debugger not on CloudFlare, we’re not the cause of the issues you’re having right now.

In reply to: [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Cache plugin slowing down site??? Please help.Hi,
CloudFlare wouldn’t really help with First Byte Time (we actually might make it look worse). Why this happens is here.
“By definition cloudflare will add some first byte time since it needs to go back to your server and process the data but it should be minimal. My algorithm for calculating a first byte time grade doesn’t play nicely with something like cloudflare though so look at the before/after first byte times and compare those directly (doesn’t explain the one long time you had in a repeat view though).
The algorithm for first byte time looks at the socket connect time to get an estimate of the round trip time to a server and then it uses a multiple of that as the baseline and adds 100ms for each letter.
Since cloudflare has distributed edge nodes, they actually make your socket connect time a LOT faster than if the browser had to go back to the original server directly so the baseline is lowered. The actual request still needs to travel back to your server though so it can’t be any faster than it was before (and will usually be slightly slower). The effect that has is that it will lower the grade even if it is actually faster because the round trip time used for the baseline is faster. ”
We would actually be interested in knowing what the issue is as well. We wouldn’t impact content directly on the server (.php, etc).
“SSL connection timeout””
This leads me to believe that this is an SSL issue.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Cloudflare] [Plugin: CloudFlare] Wow!Glad to help! Some other quick tips that generally are good to know as well using CloudFlare.
