I want to use cloudflare to obfuscate my hosting info and such. But I am not sure how to keep cloudflare from caching forum page. I am using wpfor's overide wordpress mode so my whole site is wpforo. How do I keep cloudflare from caching my site?

Hi @stevenminix,

Please try to exclude the base forum path: /community* from Cloudflare's caching:

More info in this article:

but as I said I am using wpforo override wordpress mode so technically not using the "community" base path. so does that mean I would just use my websites main URL instead as the exclude?

@stevenminix,

In this case yes, you should exclude your website's main URL.
