I’m using Cloudflare CDN, Thanks Viewing 2 replies - 1 through 2 (of 2 total) * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [4 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/block-cloudflare/#post-15396870) * Cloudflare is whitelisted by default. * So if you’re noticing it getting blocked, it could be an issue. First check the setting “Whitelisted Bots” and verify that `cloudflare` is listed. Also another reminder that Blackhole is not yet compatible with page cache plugins. * And of course you can test to make sure the plugin is working properly. Visit the Installation tab on the plugin home page for testing and other information. Let me know if any further questions, glad to help anytime. * Thread Starter [Chris Yau](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chris-yau/) * (@chris-yau) * [4 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/block-cloudflare/#post-15400277) * Hi Jeff, * I have checked seting that Cloudflare is in Whitelist but I have received the email report saying: * “`This email alert tells you that the plugin is working great, doing its job blocking bad bots.
