Cloudflare APO Issue

I’ve had that issue a few times this morning. It sees my login as coming from a CloudFlare server in the US with an IPv6 address and not my normal UK IPv4 version.

Hello @mikecleggphoto and thanks for reaching out to us!

We contacted Cloudflare and they’re looking at fixing CF-Connecting-IP, since it isn’t showing the correct visitor IP.

We recommend turning off the new Cloudflare APO feature temporarily. You should be able to turn it on again after the issue is fixed, but we haven’t heard an estimate on when that will be yet.

I will update everyone when I get more information!

Thanks!

Thank you WFAdam,

I saw yesterday Cloudflare are hoping for Wednesday so fingers crossed.

Here is their response:
“Currently Both CF-Connecting-IP and X-Forwarded-For headers are not sending real client IP when APO is enabled. We are working on a fix, ETA for the release is Wednesday.”
