 * Hi guys,
    Since updating to the latest wordpress that was released today, my 
   website won’t load [creativevisualart.com](http://creativevisualart.com) it has
   a redirect loop. I’ve told wordpress to show the site as “creativevisualart.com”
   and cloudflare adds the www. This wasn’t a problem until I updated today. Any
   ideas?
 * Thank you.

 * I just tried to enable CloudFlare on a site that I was forcing “non-WWW” on…
 * CloudFlare balked. I caved and took away the .htaccess code that was forcing 
   the non-WWW.
 * Now CloudFlare is giving an “Error 1001” and saying it cannot resolve to the 
   site. Sigh.

 * Hi,
 * It looks like you activated through a hosting partner, which would generally 
   add the redirect for the A record (creativevisualart.com) to [http://www.creativevisualart.com](http://www.creativevisualart.com)
   so we can proxy and cache the requests. The loop is being created because your
   default setup is saying send [http://www.creativevisualart.com](http://www.creativevisualart.com)
   to creativevisualart.com.
 * Note: While confusing, activating through a hosting partner only allows us to
   provision CNAME records…so that’s why forwarding the root domain (an A record)
   is generally recommended
