  • @Sala caching everything at Cloudflare will cause you serious issues - particularly anything session related such as logins, checkouts etc.

    I note you are using wp-rocket - you should ensure that you are using the recommend Cloudflare settings for this plugin, and you should also bypass the cache in Cloudflare for anything relating to session information, for example, URLs matching /login, /register, /checkout etc.

    Without these exceptions to caching, you’ll have issues with user sessions meaning unexpected and undesired behaviour.

    The simple message here is that caching everything is more hassle and pain than it is worth.

    @phenomlab thank you! no need to worry, because i dont use CDN.

    How to reduce the 1.5 to at least 1.2 is killing me. Another way maybe i should wait a couple of days and test again

    @Sala ok, can you provide a waterfall from the site (you can get this from GTMetrix) that provides a detailed breakdown of your site? TTFB is typically affected by multiple factors, so it would be interesting to get an idea of what is causing this.

    @Sala Your ttfb actually isn’t that high at all - see below

    https://www.bytecheck.com/results?resource=https%3A%2F%2Fsopriza.com%2F

    Where are you testing from, and where is the server based? Both of these will have quite an impact on ttfb and overall performance.

    For example, tested from London

    @phenomlab Sir, now i am understanding that i need to stop worrying about it, its all good. It varies in different location.

    Its my first time also to discover bytecheck , youre a good teacher, thanks!

  • @phenomlab you know he was skilled, had a couple of extensions, remember the rss story and bbcode extensions? But he just quit flarum. Almost every person that left flarum was my Friend. I will invite him here to sudonix 🌟

    @Sala Not sure you can blame someone else for an extremely poor choice of website colors. That can only be a personal choice, but won’t be appreciated by everyone who visits the site.

    @phenomlab you don’t know yet. It needs a kickback spirit and courage to rethink of coming up with something better. A master in bbcode do you think is not able to color that? Hahaha , its purely signs of broken heart. Where do we know Kyle went? come to think 🤔

    @Sala He’s definitely not a master of BBCode, I can assure you. I’ve dealt with him on many occasions, and he’s absolutely not an expert.

    @phenomlab only the extension “babyed” him? hahaha phenelob. And that’s the truth! Even luceos he relays on other people’s knowledge, his extensions were worst in maintenance! And he sat on chair like a boss who doesn’t care how many people are hurting from what his creating. Database queue 😤 , copycats

    @Sala I purchased an extension once. That was the first and las time. It was so bad that I landed up rewriting it.

    @phenomlab said in Hardening WordPress - Reducing the attack vector: @jac Microsoft’s and Google’s Authenticator both support TOTP - essentially, a time based system that changes every 30 seconds. The main principle here is that the device itself carrying the One Time Passcode only needs to be in sync with the source server in terms of time, and can be completely offline with no internet access. Provided the time matches on both devices, the One Time Passcode will be accepted. Applications such as Microsoft Authenticator and Authy also support push notification meaning you just choose either yes or no on your device when prompted, and then that response is sent back to the origin which then determines if access is granted or not. One of the best looking password less authentication models was CLEF - sadly, this product died out due to a lack of funding (if I recall correctly) although some open source implementations of this have appeared quite recently. Essentially, both products will achieve the same goal. TOTP is an industry standard, and widely accepted across the board. Not all services offer push confirmation. Many thanks for the detailed reply mate. There’s some great advice in there that will help me secure my accounts.

    @jac That won’t matter. You just redirect at nginx or apache level and it’ll work. The generally accepted standard though is to use a subdomain.
