Hello,

Details:

Name: JFantasyBooks
Site: Fantasy-Updates
Site Url: https://fantasy-updates.live
WordPress Version: 4.6
X Version: 4.6.1
Cornerstone Plugin Version: 1.30

Problem:

So, I have recently added my website to Cloudflare. Little did I know, cornerstone does not work with it.

I found some forums that speak in regards to this issue, and there was a solution, but unfortunately, the one they provided worked in allowing the editor to pop up, but the live preview could not load.

Any suggestions?

And this is the forum I used for advice: https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/cornerstone-broken-2/#post-333648

Hello There,

Thanks for writing in! The Cornerstone builder takes place on the front end, so sometimes Cloudfare tries to cache its resources. This can cause stale data to be loaded. To resolve this, you’ll need to disable Cloudfare when the builder is in use. This won’t effect front end performance at all.

1. Log into CloudFlare and navigate to “Page Rules”
2. Add a new rule using this URL pattern: *.example.com/*?cornerstone=1
3. Under custom caching, enable “Bypass cache”
4. Turn Performance “Off”

If you’re still having issues editing a page, you may need to login to Cloudfare again and purge the cache.

Please let us know how it goes.

Thanks for the reply,

Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work. I can use cornerstone, but i cannot use the live preview.

And yes, I purged the cache.

I actually do mind.

In the end i decided to not use cloudflare, and have removed it. Cornerstone is working properly now.

Thanks for your help.

[RadModerator]

Ah glad to hear that. Caches and CDN are quite tricky to manage when you occasionally work on your site.

[JfantasyBooksParticipant]

I found the solution. I had to create two page rules.

One for pages: *example.com/*?cornerstone=1*

And one for posts to include categories: *example.com/*/*?cornerstone=1*

Glad you got it to work!

Hi i tried creating the pagerules as stated above, but unfortunately cornerstone is only available in skeleton mode.
Performence disabled and cache level bypass

Is there something i should adjust?
I’m using wp super cache, autoptimize and cloudflare as is written in an earlier post from 2014.

Thanks in advance

You could try testing for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.

Let us know how it goes,

Joao

Not sure if you still need the help, Joybram but… these are my page rules to my site for cornerstone.

fantasy-books.live/*?cornerstone* for pages

and

fantasy-books.live/?*cornerstone* for posts.

No asterisk before the site name. And no ‘=1’ at the end of cornerstone

I hope that helps.

Hi There @joybram,

And make sure you purge all the cache after creating the page rules.

Thanks for chiming in @jfantasybooks

Cheers!
