Attempted to turn on the WAF from Cloudflare plugin results in a ‘Bad Request’ error. Cloudflare dashboard shows WAF already enabled.

Hi @mcohen1,

Could you please tell me if you are using Cloudflare via one of our partners?

Thanks in advance.

I believe you are asking if this site is hosted by WP Engine, and the answer is ‘no’. The Plugin used to work for the WAF enablement until moving our sites to the New Managed Rules.

Does anyone have a site using the new Managed Rules that this WAF on/off slider is fully functional? If this is just for us (we are using a Cloudflare ‘Tenant API’ Tenant), then I’ll move this to a support ticket.
