In reply to: Visual post editor and CloudFlareTry building a Page Rule to have the admin section of the site excluded from CloudFlare. You should make sure all the performance features are everything are turned off when you build the rule.

In reply to: [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Cache plugin slowing down site??? Please help.Just a quick note that all of the different testing services will return different results, so they aren’t always going to give you the same score (all 88s, for example). They will also test for different things relative to the speed of your site & give you slightly different recommendations.
Your site is loading slow for me right now. Did you turn on Minify at both W3TC and CloudFlare? If so, definitely make sure you’re only using one minify option on the site because having more than one can cause issues.

In reply to: [W3 Total Cache] [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Cloudflare and https sslThe only real way to do this right now, if your intention is to have your SSL certificate show, is to move your SSL to a subdomain & then add the subdomain to CloudFlare as something we don’t proxy.
We might have a solution for users to use their own certificates in the future. Is there a reason you don’t want CloudFlare to also proxy the SSL portions of your site, besides the issue with the cert name showing?

In reply to: [W3 Total Cache] W3 Total Cache and CloudflareYou will find that they are complementary services, so you should see benefits with both active.
“CloudFlare for minifying”
Both services have a minify option available & you would want to choose one or the other. Enabling both minify options often breaks things on your site & you don’t want to do that.In addition to the CDN component with CloudFlare, you will also get a security layer for your site as well.

In reply to: No Thumb on FacebookThe change didn’t happen when I checked (looks ok now).
Are you still getting the 503 issue even with CloudFlare off?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: No Thumb on FacebookThe DNS is still pointing to CloudFlare (see below) & your DNS change back to the registrar hasn’t completed yet.
w3spine.com. 296 IN A 199.27.135.40
w3spine.com. 296 IN A 173.245.61.114“The funny part is that even if I try to post an image with it’s full URL it’s still the same – no thumb.”
What I think might be happening:
Are you getting a 503 response error with Facebook’s debugger tool? If so, we do have an open bug with Facebook about this.Hi,
Does disabling W3TC as a test fix the problem?
CloudFlare’s Rocket Loader would have been the most likely issue with CloudFlare enabled, but not if it is still happening with CloudFlare turned off. You could also try turning off Auto Minify if CloudFlare is enabled at all, which could cause conflicts if Minify is turned on at CloudFlare and W3TC.
Hi,
Please send the request here so our API person can take a look at it. We need the domain in question, of course.
Hi,
It sounds like you don’t have permissions to write to MYSQL. you might ant to check with your hosting provider about the permissions.
Hi B_Dark,
yourdomain.com/wp-admin/*
@ B_Dark,
I would delete the comment rule (keep the wp-admin* rule).
I can’t give directions for modifying the plugin (not my area of expertise…just shared because someone shared it with me). Probably not needed if the wp-admin rule fixes the issue.
Hi Linda,
“is this fix with or without setting page rule for wp-admin”
It is actually a modification to the actual plugin – so doesn’t matter about the CloudFlare rules. I would still recommend keeping the wp-admin rule in place.note: We didnt’ write the mod to the plugin, a community member did, so I don’t want to say if it will work in all circumstances.
Additional note:
CloudFlare is testing a beta feature for image optimization for Pro accounts. If you are a Pro account already, you can test it out…just keep in mind that it might break something & you should turn it off in your CloudFlare settings (settings->CloudFlare settings) if you see a problem.Hi,
“If i change it directly on the cloudflare site, does this override the w3 setting? “
Yes, it should.
“With the CloudFlare plugin and I can only save with high security level.”
Not sure. Our API developer would need to look into this. Again, we think that there is some sort of limiting happening on the hosting side that is contributing to this:( If you would like to send more details, please send them here: http://support.cloudflare.com/cgi/discussion/newIf you can’t do it via the plugin, I would recommend logging into your CloudFlare account as an option.
Hi,
Just posting a solution that a customer sent me that appears to work when you modify a variable within the Smush.it plugin(s).
if ( !$file_url ) { // determine the public URL $file_url = str_replace( 'SERVER PATH TO UPLOADS DOC', 'HTTP URL FOR DOCUMENTS IN UPLOADS', $file ); }[Please post code or markup snippets between backticks or use the code button.]
Hi Bdark,
Are you asking how to edit/delete the rule? If you go back to the Page Rules page, you will see a gear icon that will let you edit or delete a rule.
You can purge your CloudFlare cache by going to:
settings->CloudFlare settings->Purge Cache
