Hi!

I have a discourse on docker. I redirected my website on cloudflare. Do I should do some tweaks or settings on cloudflare control panel or discourse for best performance?

Either turn the orange cloud off, or create a pagerule for your Discourse URL with the option “disable performance” - those features aren’t supported.

Thank you for your advice. If I turn off orange cloud, I guess i will not take the advantages of cloudflare.

In other way, “pagerule for your Discourse URL with the option “disable performance”” Could you explain more about this. Like, how to do, what happens if turn off etc. Sorry i want more ☹

Hello, you can do it this way:
