tankerkiller125 We are aware of the issue, we have been experiencing DDoS attacks quite often over the past week. We've been doing our best to mitigate them.
Wellwisher I will keep an eye on my cat, she's been known to walk all over my keyboard and mess things up. Just the other day I had to explain my browser history to my girl friend.
Wellwisher tankerkiller125 how would devs deal with this issue? I saw cloudflare splash screen. Is that something you'd recommend? Is this paid or a free service that Flarum.org is using?
tankerkiller125 Wellwisher Flarum uses the free plan, I also use it heavily at work for all our sites there. It's a product that I'd very highly recommend for protecting sites. They won't protect email or game servers though unless your an enterprise customer (several thousand a month)
Hari Wellwisher it is "under attack" mode CF offers for free tankerkiller125 do you recommend CF tunnels to protect servers? If flarum uses it do make a guide.
tankerkiller125 Hari Flarum does not use Tunnels, but I personally make very heavy use of it for all my sites and services I host at home.
Wellwisher Thank you @Hari and tankerkiller125. Sweet... top notch security advice from top notch devs for free. Love it. 😍 😄 Just checked with my webhost. Luckily they say CF is integrated with their service so I just need to enable it from their panel.
Hari Wellwisher do not enable until you experience any issues. This "under attack" mode is for temporary use case .. i mean it's like a temporary shield to use during attacks
