  • I've never had a problem with spammers or spambots, doesn't mean they haven't tried though. I must admit, since using CF, they don't come knocking on my door these days. 

    Phil from Ning suggested CF in a discussion some months back. Great advice.

  • I just set mine up. Took 5 minutes tops and well worth it. Thanks Patrick and Josh.

    • A quick note - Make sure you don't use simultaneous js loading because it messes up my chat in Chrome and IE.

      • Okay I will double check mine to make sure its fine. I appreciate you Mr. Swap!

  • Hi, what is this cloudflare and how do you set it up? how does it stop spammers? Sorry I am a little out of the loop! but I went to the site and saw many things but no clear answer or maybe I am dense, and I don't see how admins can stop spammers this way..?

    • It stops spammers at the DNS level, then if suspected as a spammer (usually a bot) it will show them a captcha. All you need to do is > make an account (cloudflare.com) add your domain there > scan it > change your DNS settings with your hosting company to point to there servers and your done. You can select the level of security you need.

      This is show it works - this is just from Wednesday - http://www.webpagescreenshot.info/img/376301-621201235614PM

      • wow...thank you very much Josh! I have been looking for something like this.

  • I've been using them for almost a year, and I like them.

    I also use them for their statistics, which work better than google analytics on Ning sites.

    • in what way?

      • Google Analytics does not track clicks on a page unless the click takes you to another page. Cloudflare does.
