All, I have tower installed, but wanted to add Cloudflare protection on top of that (also to mask the ip and such) i know that the docs have Cloudflare on it too. So my question, can i use cloudflare with Tower? Because now i only get redirect loops, that usually is a case when reverse proxy’s or similar are used in the tools itself. Thanks for any feedback, Erik ---

As a note, they said they didn’t support it but i thought how tricky should it be. If you use any free ssl options with cloudflare it wont work. If you use Full SSL with cloudflare it will just work. Have not tested _everything_ but so far it still works fine.
