  • Just works

    A simple and direct plugin that allows us to program CloudFlare to cache ALL of our content. That means that our site is delivered at lightning speed without even hitting our servers... our servers can be shutdown and the site still works! This plugin allows our content editors to update content and have CloudFlare update on the next hit. Support from the developer when a problem was found resulted in a hotfix within hours - great stuff, thanks.

    Nice plugin btw. I like your modal. And I wish that there was option to purge CF cache automatically when new post/page is updated/created
