Already installed cloud flare plugin to WP
Would be nice if you could tell which IP I have to insert and WHERE
Thanks!

I’ve check ur source code and cloudflare is not active as yet on ur host..check those settings i posted above…
After you set up the DNS settings in cloudflare then you need to go in cloudflare settings and set those as well..
1. Performance settings:: (CDN + FULL Optimization),
First you can only used one at a time may be u could used the plugin and removed that code and see which is more effective…
Did you put ur server Ip in the field for the A opition so that cloudflare can put they Ip to urs..
Here is a setup in cloudflare..DNS ZONE
1. Type A
2. Name (YOURSITENAME)
3. Value (Host IP)
4. TTL (Automatic)
If ur site direct traffic with out a www…
Then this setting is important..
1. CNAME
2. Name WWW
3. Value (is an alias of YOURSITENAME) WITH OUT THE WWW
4. TTL (Automatic)
You going need this plugin as well…get it via wordpress
Hey Steven, think I solved this.
Look:
the nameservers are already changed in my CP at df.eu
But:
I had to deactivate “On CloudFlare Traffic will be accelerated by CloudFlare” for this:
Type A and Type AAAA
The result now is this: http://dnscheck.pingdom.com/?domain=cherrykoks.de
P.S I already have the strings remover installed, but not working because I added this to the functions.php
/** Remove Query strings from Static Resources. */
function _remove_script_version( $src ){
$parts = explode( ‘?’, $src );
return $parts[0];
}
add_filter( ‘script_loader_src’, ‘_remove_script_version’, 15, 1 );
add_filter( ‘style_loader_src’, ‘_remove_script_version’, 15, 1 );
<?php
}
add_action(‘print_media_templates’, ‘td_change_backbone_js_hook’);
Do you recommend to delete that code, and let the plugin do its work oder anything else?
And: any tip for bad request?
There are two pictures deleted from ftp

Hey @Cherry yes you have to change ur host nameservers to cloudflare ones,to change the nameservers u have to go in ur host DNS settings and look for there name servers and put cloudflare ones ::
rihana.ns.cloudflare.com
nick.ns.cloudflare.com
Query Strings Remover
The plugin name is “Query Strings Remover” by the author Atul Kumar Pandey
You can download this plugin via the wordpress website @ this url
Hey Steven, hey peps!
maybe you can help me with that:
switched to cloudflare but having problems with the last steps:
http://www.intodns.com/cherrykoks.de
it says:
Error Missing nameservers reported by parent FAIL: The following nameservers are listed at your nameservers as nameservers for your domain, but are not listed at the parent nameservers (see RFC2181 5.4.1). You need to make sure that these nameservers are working.If they are not working ok, you may have problems!
rihana.ns.cloudflare.com
nick.ns.cloudflare.com
Error Missing nameservers reported by your nameservers ERROR: One or more of the nameservers listed at the parent servers are not listed as NS records at your nameservers. The problem NS records are:
ns.namespace4you.de
ns2.namespace4you.de
This is listed as an ERROR because there are some cases where nasty problems can occur (if the TTLs vary from the NS records at the root servers and the NS records point to your own domain, for example).
What am I supposed to do?
My host is df.eu
Do I have to change the NS Records? And if so, how and to which source?
Thanks
FYI : http://who.is/dns/cherrykoks.de and http://www.intodns.com/cherrykoks.de
http://gtmetrix.com/reports/cherrykoks.de/utmzkiGq
Has anyone a resolution for this?
First point: the thing with the strings – what can I do here?
I activated in my plugin : Remove “?ver=XXX” part from URL (still not better)
And the Bad Request : 2 of them are deleted pictures… I asked google- but couldn’t find instruction to fix that! The Pictures are deleted from FTP – what else can I do and how exactly? (explanation for a dizzy blonde please! 😉 )
Yes…. follow the suggestions found in this sticky topic.
1) make sure you have proper expiration headers
2) make sure you have gzip/deflate running on your server
3) use the speedbooster tagdiv plugin
4) use an image optimization tool (e.g., smushit, or similar) and/or set compression level in your functions.php file
Use GTMetrix to see anything you need to fix except for minifying the CSS and Java; if you wish to minimize that you can do so using the tips I’ve included for using CSSminifier, etc.
However, expiration headers, cache control headers in htaccess file, and gzip/deflate running on your server are good for 20 points of your problem and will get you into the 85 range once you solve that.
I’m running the PageSpeed Insights and receiving a terrible result. On desktop im receiving a 65/100 – and I wanted to point out a lot of is has to do with ‘CSS’ (same with mobile). It’s telling me to optimize css deliver of the following (http://screencast.com/t/z9EIqVts0B2). Any suggestions? (v. 4.0.2)
@Shashank
Hi, if you look at the page speed sticky topic, my settings for mod_pagespeed I’m using with theme are found there, along with my htaccess TTL/expiration settings and robots.txt file, etc. 🙂
Basically mod_pagespeed can strip out all comments, and remove spaces and double line breaks. It doesn’t make a 300 foot long single line of code, but big whoop on that; it’s doing it on the fly and caching stuff, so not going to complain 🙂
I would not combine the CSS or JS files, since what if a specific function module is looking for site.js and you combined that with something else, it will break — I think the config that Radu and Co have done, along with their speed booster take care of a lot of that. You would kind of have to experiment on that one if you want to try to combine things.
Thanks for your suggestions Chris, I’ll probably minify the js and css files manually and then replace them but what about combining? Is there something out there for this purpose too?
And I would like to hear more about your mod_pagespeed html minification, may I try it out if you share your codes. 🙂
Cheers
What I do is use the links found in my posts under the page speed topic, and just manually minify the main style.css file, and main .js file.
E.g., for CSS:
cssminifier.com
for JS:
http://gpbmike.github.io/refresh-sf/
basically paste the main style.css file into the minifier, then copy and paste the minified version back into the styles file and then upload/over-write main one on the server. Takes 2 minutes. Done.
If you read the other sticky on speed by “Steven”, he has been using a minify plugin that seems to work.
In my case mod_pagespeed minifies my HTML, so don’t have to deal with that. I then use cssminifier to optimize the main css file.
Since I have to do couple of hacks to my functions.php file, and switch on the author name on posts, home page modules, and swap out the field name for view counter to our existing field with EVERY update, it’s not much more work to do the CSS and JS minify on main couple of files each time as well. No plugins needed 🙂
And, another option – if you use GTMetrix to test your site … they can actually spit out “optimized” versions of stuff for you, which is cool.
Just as an anecdote on minification:
minifying the main style.css file will take the size from 286kb to 204kb, as savings of about 80kb, which is actually quite a bit.
@manuel
yes… just google it 😉
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/module/filter-lazyload-images
Objective
Optimize browser rendering and reduce number of HTTP round-trips by deferring the loading of images which are not in the client’s viewport. This filter implements the PageSpeed rules for optimizing browser rendering and minimizing round trip times.
The lazyload_images filter defers loading of images until they become visible in the client’s viewport or the page’s onload event fires. This avoids blocking the download of other critical resources necessary for rendering the above the fold section of the page.
**
where we ran into trouble was the “onscroll” feature, which hides things until you scroll down, which would seem to make sense, but with the earlier version of Newspaper, we’d basically scroll down and the images would be too lazy and not load at all !
Now, both the theme and mod_pagespeed have been updated since last time I tried this, so it’s on my to do list to revisit 🙂 I would have gotten back to this, but was really sick for 3 months, and only now getting back to ‘normal” and waaay catching up on stuff. 🙂
Thx @ChristopherSimmons, all images are already size optimized. Problem is first page load since we have a lot of new visitors.
Has mod_pagespeed an own option for lacy loading images?
We experimented with various lazy loading things; however we ran into issues on home page (this was possibly back on Newspaper 2x, btw), and some other things where sometimes certain images didn’t load at all due to the lazy loading timing out for some things “below the fold” … if your host has mod_pagespeed you can play with that, but there are also some plugins as tomdouble noted above. Be sure to test if you have lots of images; if you see “empty spots” when running lazy load, you might have to do without.
Note with proper server side caching, the images should be cached on first load and then future visitors get cached copy, so perhaps not that necessary. Worth trying if you think it’s slowing down page. Be sure to try running smushit or modifying the functions file to reduce image thumbnail sizes first, as that in combination with caching usually does the trick.
@ericsan
not really; and it’s not that big of an issue technically.
one of my sites which has this “warning” has a pagespeed for desktop of 97, 91 for mobile, and 85 for mobile UX (no CMS used; all hosted locally).
To give you an idea how funky that “suggested” fix actually is, with the first version we got warning of “only 54% of your page could load to render blah blah” and had pagespeed of 91; we changed around some stuff, got pagespeed of 97 but now says “only 1% of your page could load … try to fix render blocking ….”
Well, 350k page with 1400 DOM elements, loads in 1.3 to 1.6 seconds, has pagespeed of 97 desktop and 91 mobile. SO, big whoop.
If your speed is above 91/92 and you still get “suggestion” for render blocking, you can likely ignore it. It’s pretty hard to get a higher speed with a complex WordPress news portal which has bootstrap 3 as underpinnings.
So, it’s usually best to work out EVEYTHING else first, then if all you have left is “render blocking blah blah” … then you can get on with your life.
To get maximum speed you have to massively optimize your content, figure out how not to load any external stuff from social media, google, etc. — tricky.

This may or may not work for you with this theme; but general settings from a blog called online media masters, and I’ve seen the same settings elsewhere would be as so:
(THIS MAY BE INCORRECT FOR THIS THEME: BE SURE TO TRY SETTINGS FOR YOUR SETUP: KEEP BACKUPS, AND KNOW HOW TO GO BACKWARDS BEFORE USING ANY CACHE!)
—————-
(to quote …)
General Settings
◾Leave unchecked
Page Cache
◾Page cache: enable
◾Page cache method: disk enhanced
Minify Settings
◾Minify: enable
◾Minify mode: auto
◾Minify cache method: disk
◾HTML minifier: default
◾JS minifier: JSMin (default)
◾CSS minifier: default
Database Cache
◾Database cache: enable
◾Database cache method: disk
Object Cache
◾Object cache: enable
◾Object cache method: disk
Browser Cache
◾Browser cache: enable
CDN
◾CDN: enable
◾CDN Type: MaxCDN
Reverse Proxy
◾Leave unchecked
Network Performance & Security powered by CloudFlare
◾If you have a CDN: leave unchecked
◾If you don’t have a CDN: sign up for CloudFlare and use the settings shown in the picture
Note: W3 Total Cache and CloudFare have integrated their products.
Monitoring
You’ll see an option here to sign up for New Relic. This is a tool for monitoring your web and mobile apps performance. It’s more for developers but if you are one, you probably already know about this service. Otherwise, leave it blank.
Licensing
◾Leave blank
Miscellaneous Settings
If you want to see your Google Page Speed score in your WordPress dashboard, there’s instructions in this menu. Otherwise, here are the settings I use:
◾Enable Google Page Speed dashboard widget: enable
◾Verify rewrite rules: checked
◾Enable file locking: unchecked
◾Optimize disk enhanced page and minify disk caching for NFS: unchecked
Debug
◾Leave everything unchecked
Import / Export Settings
If you want to use the same W3 total cache settings across multiple websites, export your settings and import them into the new WordPress sites.
The only solution that we have for that pagespeed score is to use less scripts and css files. Also a smaller and fast respondif homepage helps a lot. Other than that, the score is pretty good.
