 * For some time I’ve used this plugin. However, due to recent instability, I’ve
   decided to uninstall it. First, I got a notification that a new version was available(
   3.0.0). Multiple times I have attempted to update the plugin. Every time I kept
   getting an error of:
 * “Update Failed: Download failed. Not Found.”
 * So, I decided to download the latest version of the plugin and update it manually.
   After updating the plugin, I went to the Cloudflare settings. Previously, it 
   was as simple as entering one’s Cloudflare account username/password. One could
   then set the option of development mode and so forth. Now, I see a button to “
   Apply Default Settings.” According to the description, this button will “Apply
   CloudFlare recommended settings to ensure optimal site performance.” The problem
   is this never happens. I clicked the button and a little spinning circle popped
   up where the button was at. I figured this meant that it was applying the settings.
   However, it’s been about ten minutes and it’s still applying said settings.
 * I’ve uninstalled the plugin as it’s apparent the plugin is no longer stable. 
   It can’t update itself. Then it can’t even apply the settings. What’s the point
   of keeping a plugin that won’t update or even function?
