CloudFlare Manager [Beta 3.1]

I would advise you leave your settings to default if you're unsure of what they do. You can have a toy around to see the different effects of different settings but at the end of the day simply using CloudFlare is a benefit to your site.

Beta 3 is now available. It contains many bug fixes along with a few new features so if you're not running the latest version, upgrade now.

I've also updated the screenshots on the mods site. I'm pretty happy this this release. A stable version should be available within a few months depending on the free time I have.

If I'm running this with "scrutinise user's IP address" set to on, do you know if the IP I receive from admin CP honeypot will be correct or not?

If that plugin uses the get_ip() function to retrieve the IP address, then yes, it will be correct. There's no need to use that setting in the ACP if you're using version 1.0 Beta 3 or above as this plugin automatically detects the correct IP address.

Right ok - I'll go and change that then as it doesn't.

I assume there is no conflict having scrutinise IP on though

There shouldn't be any conflict. With the plugin activated it will always detect the correct IP. :)
