Nancy,

I concur on needing a child theme because you have to use custom PHP to change the default WordPress message. I do have a starter child theme available on GitHub for UU2014:
https://github.com/dflippo/uu2014-child

Adding the code above to the functions.php in the child theme should make the change you are looking for.

Johanna, tomorrow I will create an issue on Github with you questions. Github makes it easier for me to track, be notified, and respond to issues. If you create an account there you can “follow” the theme to get updates.

Dan

Willocase,

This error has been fixed in the latest release of the theme. For faster response, you can open future issues on https://github.com/dflippo/UU2014/issues since I get notifications from there and don’t check this board as frequently.

All,

Last week a Cloudflare engineer told me they fixed the issue and would have the fix in production in the near future. Today I disabled the .htninja fix provided above and did not have any issues when I viewed my site. I confirmed that the request came through on IPv6 and I had all the firewall rules enabled. I am marking this topic as resolved. Thanks again.

Dan

nintechnet,
Thanks for the clarification. Based on knowing that, I came up with a different solution on my end. I added the following directives to my Apache configuration:

RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For A a
RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For B b
RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For C c
RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For D d
RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For E e
RequestHeader edit* X-Forwarded-For F f

This works in Apache 2.4 and maps the uppercase letters to lowercase letters. There may be a fancier way to make this change in one step but the PCRE replacement feature used by RequestHeader isn’t very advanced.

I agree that ideally CloudFlare should be following the proposed RFC and I’ll see about opening a ticket to let them know. I guess in their defense the RFC hasn’t been made a full standard yet but it has been 4 years.

Thanks again.

The plugin is released under GPL so someone can choose to fork it and support it. Personally, I liked the way the Javascript worked so I embedded it in the theme I maintain, UU 2014. However, I use the JavaScript to create a floating widget area and allow users to put whatever widgets they want in it.

All, I was able to use Smush.It without issue once I added a custom rule in Cloudflare Threat Control to trust the following Yahoo IP:
98.136.171.205
98.139.160.207

Maybe you only need one of these. I added both and then tested that it worked.
