Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted July 26, 20195 yr So I am using CloudFlare for my DNS/caching, and it's working out great. However, when investigating a potential duplicate member issue my Mods and I discovered that many users were showing up under the same IP which resolves back to CloudFlare. So is CloudFlare messing with my user IP accuracy, and would this be a way to resolve it? https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200170916-Why-should-I-install-mod-cloudflare- Any advice/education is appreciated!

You'll need to enable the "Trust IP addresses provided by proxies" if you're using a proxy server (which Cloudflare effectively is). Search for 'proxy' in the AdminCP to locate the setting.
