Hi,
“Are you saying that you think it is the wp-admin/* page rule that is helping this?”
We would generally recommend this (still beta testing). We’ve seen a number of issues with wp-admin, so better safe than sorry.
Hi Linda,
The page rule actually shouldn’t impact the image loading. If you have something specific to share, please do (much easier to look at).
I don’t *think* that will be an issue because it is only stopping the upload portion from the admin section of your site from being touched. Try turning on the caching option for the page rule to see if that still allows the smush.it plugin to work. It could be another feature, not caching, impacting whatever it was (go to edit rule & change it from bypass cache).
Hmmm…still find it out that some say it happens without and with CloudFlare. Let’s try this…
We have a beta feature called Page Rules that you can access here: https://www.cloudflare.com/preview-page-rules. After activating the beta, go to the Page Rules that you will in the CloudFlare settings drop down choices.
You should then drop in your URL for the upload, such as:
gigafytes.com/wp-content* (be sure to include the wildcard)
The turn off all of the security and performance options (change cache to bypass cache, etc.).
Note: I would also recommend excluding your admin url us, such as gigafytes.com/wp-admin*
Hi,
Ok, can you try to turn W3TC off as a test? It is the only common thread I see so far besides CloudFlare. If CloudFlare is off when this happens, then this error isn’t coming from us.
Just a quick note on this one:
W3 Total Cache
WP Minify
WP Smush.it
WP Super Cache (using for small fonc.)Generally speaking, you really only want to use one plugin for caching. As they all work differently, they can cause conflicts with one another.

In reply to: [Cloudflare] Is CloudFlare plugin wp multisite compatible?Hi Phil,
Shouldn’t be any issues at all with CloudFlare and Intense Debate.
“I was wondering if I am able to use this plug-in with my existing sites as well as new ones but after clicking on the free plug-in link, I see that the Pro version does that.”
You would have to signup for CloudFlare directly (the plugin alone doesn’t make CloudFlare work). The plugin(s) are there to make the process of adding/updating the addon subdomains easier.Just a quick note that I tested Smush.it on my personal blog without any issues.
A couple of quick questions:
1. Are you having the issue when doing one smush or a bulk smush?
2. Are you using any other caching plugins?
3. Which version of WordPress are you using?Hi,
We have an engineer that is testing this out. I did want to highlight that it is very easy for you to see if CloudFlare is actually causing this.
1. Temporarily deactivate CloudFlare in your CloudFlare settings (settings->deactivate/pause CloudFlare).
2. Wait about ten minutes.
3. Try to run the plugin again.Note: Do all of the users have a beta feature called Rocket Loader turned on? I did notice that one of our inbound contacts did have Rocket Loader turned on, which can impact some scripts, so I’m curious if turning that feature off fixes the issue.
Here’s what our engineer thinks is happening:
The hosting providers are probably blocking php from
being able to make outgoing api calls. This is a security setting
sometimes turned on. A solution would be to use javascript to make the
calls, but this would require a re-write of the cf integration for the W3TC plugin by the author.This will probably be hard to troubleshoot directly on the forums. Can you please contact us so we can have the engineer that developed the plugin check it out? We would need to know the domain(s) you’re having an issue with.

In reply to: [Cloudflare] Is CloudFlare plugin wp multisite compatible?“So, I have to put single A entry for every subdomains in my CloudFlare DNS settings? “
Or create a CNAME record for the subdomains.
We can’t proxy * (wildcard) records at this time for a variety of reasons, including security related concerns. If we can figure out a solution to it that addresses these concerns, we’ll be more than happy to launch something.
The WP plugin is also not compatible with multiesite at this time:(

In reply to: [Cloudflare] [Plugin: CloudFlare] Minify SettingsI believe that W3TC’s Minify option is more robust than ours because it has been around longer. Ours doesn’t really require any configuration, however, once you turn it on in your settings & can be turned on/off in a matter of seconds.
I would probably just try both (one at a time, of course) to see which one works best for you and your site(s).

In reply to: [Cloudflare] [Plugin: CloudFlare] Minify SettingsI would personally not turn on minify for both services. I’ve seen it break a number of things doing so, so you would want to choose on service or the other.

In reply to: [Cloudflare] CloudFlare PluginGlad to help. Only caveat is we’re not sure if the W3TC plugin has all of our new ips in it just yet (we contacted them). But you don’t need both as a regular course of business:)

In reply to: [Cloudflare] CloudFlare PluginNot really an issue if you’re already using the W3TC plugin w/CloudFlare. The CF plugin is not required if you’re using CloudFlare with W3TC already.
Hi,
“ANyway, in trying to connect W3TC with CloudFlare, I keep getting the ‘unable to make cloudflare API request’ error message.”
And you have your CloudFlare API key established, etc.?
Note: You really don’t need to have CloudFlare’s plugin active if you’re using W3TC’s.
