It's fine 99% of the time, our demo sites are running with it. I've seen there be issues with Cloudflare in rare cases with the upload speed. Some YS users have said it goes slower and disabling CloudFlare fixes it. I've not seen it myself but that's the only thing to be aware of.

there is an issue with cloudflare where when people upload files, it does not give a url link, its blank

something to do with

Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 503.

I enabled cloudflare

I can upload file

but when other users upload, they get the problem i described, i.e one guy says

" I cannot upload a video that I need to send a prospective employer by tomorrow. I have tried multiple times and though I can browse my documents and select the file, it never uploads once I click on upload queue. Instead it just says that it's 100% uploaded already and there is no file or link given."

so he cant upload to a file server that is behind cloudflare, but i can. i turn off cloudflare, and then he can upload

So ridiculous

SO i guess i am going to try

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
</IfModule>

in htaccess

the whole thing is depressing

heres the error

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://server1.domain.com/core/page/ajax/file_upload_handler.ajax.php?r=domain.com&p=https&csaKey1=(key)afbf9&csaKey2=(key). (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).

So i guess i need to do that header access control thing i posted, or is it somethuingi else ? let me know

ive given up on cloud flare, my website would randomly be offline for a minute or so in the last few hours, this isnt going to impress uploaders/downloaders

what sucks is the my main page is about 1.4mb to load fully, i'm not sure if thats the ys script or all the mods ive done, hopefully 4.3 is a bit lighter

also i noticed the whole sites headers call no-cache etc... is there a reason for that, and is ys gzip friendly,

i used to have this in my htaccess

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>

</IfModule>

but removed it later on because i'm not sure if there was any negative effects, i may re-add it again and test, it definitely speeds up page loading

enabling gzip sped up my page load from 7.54s to less than 2 according to http://tools.pingdom.com/

There is a module on nginx that makes nginx look first for a .gz file. You can keep a compressed copy of all js and css on your website. Using the deflate from apache will make apache compress every file over and over again in every request.

I also merged all css and js in one file to reduce the number of requests. The 1mb of javascript is reduced to 250kb.
