    Really you did a great job and thank you for it

    But my friend I have a question

    Someone is sending visits that drain my resources

    And customers cannot browse my site

    Yes, there are 35 visits, but they are not visible in Google statistics

    And I enabled the recommended settings in Cloudflare

    And it did not serve the purpose, knowing that these visits come from an enemy who knows my site and has somehow sent fake visits just to drain my server resources

    What is the solution in your opinion

    And can you help me please

    I am confused

    Do you have access to your web server logs? It sounds like you are seeing “visits” as Cloudflare measures them based on HTTP requests, but then comparing them to Google Analytics which is (in theory) users or at least a bot that executes JavaScript.

    Those 35 “visits” are probably bots or search engine spiders.

    TL;DR: Cloudflare is measuring HTTP requests (which can include things like search engine spiders) and Google Analytics is measuring based on browsers that run JavaScript.

    Really my technical information is little

    But I need an expert to help me

    I am tired of the Fiverr platform where you find people learning on your money

    And in the end their information is limited

    And they cannot answer

    Please, I am in dire need of help, my friend

    Can you come in with me or make a meeting via anydesk and see my settings? I am kind of worried.

    There really isn’t any Cloudflare setting to stop it other than blocking non-human traffic. Cloudflare is measuring something different than Google Analytics, so it will always be different.

    Cloudflare is measuring HTTP requests (which might not be a human user at a browser… could be a search engine spider for example). Google Analytics is measuring human visitors (that arent using ad blockers and have JavaScript enabled).

    I guess it would be helpful to know what your goal is. Are you looking to block search engine spiders/non-human traffic from your site?

    I have visits to several products repeatedly from robots that add them to the cart every minute and in return run an Ajax process every minute, which consumes server resources. Here lies the problem. How can we solve it or how can we avoid such hidden problems that destroy the site? What is the solution in your opinion?

    Do you know the user agent of the “bad bot”? The easiest thing to do is to make a rule that blocks them based on their user agent.

    In my abandoned carts list every second I add a cart
    And the name of the country it was added from appears
    But when I enter cloudflare
    In the security list the name of the country it is entering from does not appear
    I am really confused
    How do I find this culprit

    Do you have access to your web server logs? I’d block them by user agent, but you would need to find the user agent to block.

    Once you figure out the user agent (or IP address) of the bot you want to block, you can do so in your Cloudflare dashboard, here: https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/:zone/security/waf/tools

    You can block individual IPs, blocks of IPs or entire countries with the IP Access Rules.

    If you want to block based on user agent, use the User Agent Blocking rules.

    Can you explain the best settings for the free package to integrate with WooCommerce?

    With your plugin
    An explanation that will help those who need it.
    For security settings and also for anything that can be worked on through the plugin

    The Easy Config option works fine with WooCommerce.

    If you have something specific you are trying to do and unable to, I can give some guidance, but I’m not sure what you are trying to do exactly.
