I know Cloudflare has functionality to block AI bots. However, I heard something about them charging AI bots for access and then passing that money off to the website. Has anyone else heard of this before?
As you may know, yuo can customize the error pages in Cloudflare, such as for a WAF block, etc. For some reason, since the switchover to the new error pages dashboard, the custom font I always use isn't working. I can see that it converted https://cdn.daniweb.com/font.woff into inline base64 for …
This question is probably more suited for Cloudflare's community forums, but I figured I might as well ask it here (and there), and worst case, I get an answer there and then I can update this thread with the answer. So, from the Cloudflare domain overview, I click on Error …
Cloudflare's WAF Attack Score of Attack (*not* Likely Attack, but just simply Attack) is giving me false positives, and that was a bit unexpected. I had to create a Rate limiting rule based on he WAF Attack Score so that it only blocks if the number of requests exceeds 5 …
I'm intrigued by the Cloudflare setting called DNSSEC that says: *DNSSEC uses a cryptographic signature of published DNS records to protect your domain against forged DNS answers.* Additionally, the Cloudflare setting called CNAME flattening for all CNAME records. It says: *Speed up DNS resolution on CNAMEs by having Cloudflare return …
Do you use Cloudflare, Fastly, or something else? Do you cache HTML content at the edge or just static files? Just curious what DaniWeb members do and their reasons. I was really late to the Cloudflare game, but I've been here for a few years now. I was hesitant for …
I happily just discovered the Cache-Control rules *stale-if-error* and *stale-while-revalidate*. I came across [an article](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cache/concepts/cache-control/) on Cloudflare's site that says that those two directives are ignored if CF's Always Online feature is enabled, so I've gone ahead and disabled that. However, I'm confused by the following quote: > The stale-if-error …
Probably this is me just venting more than anything, but has anyone had success in getting in touch with someone from Cloudflare billing? Cloudflare recently charged us a boatload of money for Argo accelerated traffic that was the result of a DDoS attack. Cloudflare was able to detect on their …
Probably a silly question, but is Argo Smart Routing (the usage-based product) only applicable to content served at the origin? Otherwise, does it makes sense to be spending money to find a more efficient path between the end-user and the edge? Isn't the edge already pretty darn close?
I have made a change to my website from `non-www` to `www` since i saw many google owned websites use `www` in front of the domains.. so i though why not me too. But after making the change i did a google search on the same topic and came up …
Starting September 1st, about 25% of crawl requests started returning 304 Not Modified instead of 200 OK. Prior to that, there were just a small handful of such requests per day. I did not make any code changes that would introduce returning this header. Once I noticed, however, I tried …

In terms of performance, which is the best jQuery CDN to use? The one at cdnjs.cloudflare.com, googleapis.com, jsDelivr, code.jquery.com, etc?
I started using Cloudflare yesterday, and I must say, I'm incredibly impressed with them. They have a pretty well-rounded featureset that goes above and beyond just being a static CDN.
Google PageSpeed Insights indicates a score of 90+. However, the same pages still fall into the slow speed category in Google Search Console Chrome UX report. It says FCP is longer than 3 seconds (3.1s average). What is some low hanging fruit I can do to help real world performance? …

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Cloudflare and what you thought of it? A *LOT* of big sites are using it, and from what I'm hearing, it's really good at caching entire webpages at the DNS server end without ever having to hit your web servers. However, …
