Thank you too!

[@Dan13Speed]

These videos are always helpful. Thanks

[@stephenbugden1270]

Thank you for the video Alex. Just wondering what happens when the website is changed. I mean how do we force the cached pages to refresh?

[@theuniversityofthemind6347]

Hi, I love your videos.... It was you who taught me to set up my Vutr sever from scratch :) ... Question, is their any chance you can do a Cloudflare DMARC Management setup tutorial? i love your teaching style and there's no setup video of this type available anywhere on KZbin :)

Every time you visit a website hosted with cloudflare doesn’t it always do that annoying CAPTCHA Or is that the point?

[@IdeaSpot]

No, the default setting won’t show the captcha for human users 👍 some sites experiencing a lot of bot attacks will set it to ‘under attack’ so everyone needs to do the captcha, maybe that’s what you’ve seen. I’ve been using it for years and never needed to do that on my sites personally

[@superAweber]

Luckily I've watched your other video where you show the installation of an SSL certificate on cloudways

[@superAweber]

Still, your videos are extremely valuable to me.

[@Davisthemagnate]

My site is showing my default theme instead of my ordinary site look.

[@volodymyrhlushko7355]

Thanks. Useful guide!

[@SidSaynamgeuim]

How many domains can I use $0 plan? Thanks.

[@thomasl.819]

I set it up the same way but for some reason when I go to my site I get an SSL handshake error. Any tips on how to fix this?

[@hdguppies]

It's not finished. He only changed DNS server and did not install SSL cert.

I have tried to walk through this tutorial for setting up cloudflare on an oracle free tier but when i set it up, at least what i think is set up. nothing works. when i go to my hestiaCP it shows an error of to "connection timed out" and for the webmail and wordpress site i get the error " too many redirects" domain name is with namecheap. If i leave the dns pointing to namecheap everything works fine, i only get those issues when i point the name servers to cloudflare's nameservers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@IdeaSpot]

Change to port 2083 for hestia w cloudflare - not 8083 👍

[@dawitz362]

Thanks , it worked.

[@Re_Panda]

Quick question about Oracle cloud: can I run the openvpn and Ubuntu desktop VM on the same free tier? Can I use Linux instead of Ubuntu which is shown in your remote desktop video? I'm just wanna try Oracle for fun, so I'd really appreciate if you could answer. Thankyou

[@IdeaSpot]

yes it should be possible, good luck 👍

[@simoneonorato1223]

Security is never fully included, the host provider will never update your plugin or WordPress version (biggest security risks)

[@maiabh]

when it scans for my dns records, it's all blank. no entries at all. does anyonw know how to fix this?

[@jadens9569]

You'll have to manually transfer it over.

[@fadye3050]

thankyou ❤

[@abdimussa8932]

Hi Alex, I've a nodejs backend I hosted on DO and have my subdomain point to the ip address. However, when I try to acess that subdomain it sometimes returns "server IP address could not be found". Would using cloudflare help in my case?

[@HansAnderson-y5m]

make a video about vps singapore price under $3

[@IdeaSpot]

have you found any offering this?

[@mindaugaskucinskas8941]

Thanks for video i asked for it 10 months ago, but once again you make JUST BASIC INFO about CLOUDFLARE please create step by step to all functions on site, NOT BASIC PACK :) i will wait :D

[@IdeaSpot]

What do you need exactly? Maybe better to ask on the cloudflare community forum if you need something specific community.cloudflare.com/

[@mindaugaskucinskas8941]

@@IdeaSpot please make full tutorial of cloudflare for all it's most waited video because no one not done that on KZbin you will be first who will explain about functions and configurations :)

[@mindfullyabsurd]

Hi thank you for this. I did find I had to keep 'Your SSL/TLS encryption mode is Flexible' to 'Flexible' otherwise I kept getting the 402 error message.

[@hdguppies]

You don't need to install an SSL certificate?

[@loydabi]

And how i can upload scripts into my website

[@pwrdbyhatred]

No more setting to be done in page-rule? Thanks

[@susgreg]

Cloudflare uses cookies if Im not mistaken, so you also have to create cookies consent right?

[@IdeaSpot]

Depends on your country what your requirements will be

[@zadekeys2194]

One NB thing - pay attention to the ORDER that CloudFlare processes things.... They show this in a top-bottom order in the dash, I think under security. This optimises things in general and makes sure you are processing the right rules/data, in the right sequence as defined by CF. I'd also do some blocking for Geo/country/ASN in general, and specifically setup allowed IP's or countries to your login page. CF tunnels can also be used to restrict access to your website's login page. With Wordpress, I let CF process the usual HTAccess stuff and then I mirror that in my local WP HTA file, juuuust incase.

[@IdeaSpot]

good tips 👍
