# sometimes doesn’t work with Cloudflare

 * Sometimes it happens that the plugin does not work with Cloudflare.
    Writes that
   10 seconds have passed and there was an unexpected server response. There is 
   no logic in this, it just does not work and that’s it. No convenient solutions
   exist, the option to insert a unique ID each time is not suitable, because then
   page caching does not work and the meaning of caching is lost. Attached is the
   result of the post: —————
 *     ```

    this problem has been around for several years. Some solution is needed.
   None of what I have seen before is suitable, because it is not effective. What
   does the unexpected answer mean – it is not clear. Some kind of clarification,
   because this error occurs on larger sites.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsometimes-doesnt-work-with-cloudflare%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

    hmmm actually
   I think you should contact CloudFlare for support about this case, but we have
   another workaround solution here: modify **wp-config.php** ( you can find this
   file in your root directory ), and **BEFORE** the line: **/\* That’s all, stop
   editing! Happy blogging. \*/ ** add this line: `define('ALTERNATE_WP_CRON' , 
   true );`

    since we haven’t
   heard back from you, I’m going to mark it as resolved. In case you’re still having
   problems, feel free to let us know ;),
 * Btw, If you find BackWPUp useful for you, we would really appreciate if you leave
   a positive review and rating.
    This would encourage us to develop new free features
   and provide free support 😀 [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/reviews/#new-post](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/backwpup/reviews/#new-post)
