Cloud Flare Settings

If you use Cloud Flare for your websites, please ensure that the WordPress API is not cached and also that Slynk is allowed through the Web Application Firewall (WAF).

Move this new rule to the top of the list of rules so that it can be checked first. If this is not done and other rules are set to block the requests, then this rule will never get executed.
