 * My site needs to update the php and before doing that I checked the plugin PHP
   Compatibility Checker, the cloudflare plugin is the only one that has the latest
   php version errors, follows the error:
 * ARCHIVE: /cloudflare/cloudflare-plugin-backend/src/SecurityUtil.php

   php 7.4.3

 * Thanks for the answer [@lorddunvegan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lorddunvegan/),
   I was wondering if it has the same functions?

 * [@diogocardoso2010](https://wordpress.org/support/users/diogocardoso2010/) It
   certainly gets rid of the SSL looping issue and combined with WP Cloudflare Super
   Page Cache Plugin appears to make a good (better?) job of things.
 * I have also now started to use LetsEncrypt certificates in combination with CloudFlare’s
   flexible SSL and set SSL to Full.
