Lot of promising opportunity using this WP plugin with the cloudflare service, alas it is not well supported by cloudflare and cloudflare doesn’t intend to maintain this plugin any longer.
Update Sept 2025: looks like they’re picking this plugin back up again 🙂
I have used many plugins including super page cache (wp super cache but the one that deal with cloudflare). I was enough in general with intrusive advertisements and very slow administration. I decided to go back to the official cloudflare plugin for wordpress + wp super cache. It is stable. They don’t add unsollicited advertisements, features. The settings are not bloated with many useless stuff. This cloudflare plugin is just the best solution if you want to use cloudflare. Then, if you want to tune cloudflare ,you are free to do it manually and that’s the best approach for the long term. This cloudflare plugin will never crash your wordpress installation.
you need to under stand there setting to create an api key and I do not have faith in the average wp user to not create a safe key. please update the basic settings to be safer.
Does not work on WordPress Version 6.7.2. Just a blank settings screen.
Has not been updated in 7 months (its March 2025 at the time writing this review)
Whoa! Did not expect such from Cloudflare. For clients that have WordPress and Cloudflare the offer is $5 / mth to connect to the platflorm for the WordPress Optimization. Once you pay, your directed to download the plugin… only then would you notice the plugin is not updated!!
If you’re going to offer a service, support it!
Using outdated plugins is like leaving your windows open while on vacation, it’s not secure and warnings showing. As technology moves forward so should your product or service.
