Error once I joined Cloudflare

Since I switch to Cloudflare this week my website is showing this error at the bottom of the page.

Notice: ob_end_flush(): failed to send buffer of zlib output compression (1) in /home/faithonview/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 5107

My host says they aren’t able to help me resolve this since the A Record now points to Cloudflare, which it is my understanding that it has to.

Are there suggestions on how to fix this?

Sorry to say, but thats a PHP/WordPress error, not a Cloudflare error. This is not related to Cloudflare at all.
Yes the A Record points to Cloudflare, that is the DNS. The DNS and its Proxy does not have anything to do with failed to send buffer of zlib output compression (1).

Ok. This only started happening once I switched to Cloudflare. How do I temporary switch the A Record back to my host so that I can troubleshoot this?

Just activate the Developer Mode or if you really want to make sure your server does not receive a request from Cloudflare, unproxy :grey: the DNS entries you need to call your page. Then AFTER this took effect test again.

Thank you. This was very helpful.
