Can't save edits in one C5.7 installation

Permalink
Hello,

I'm new to working with concrete5, and since I have two sites to develop, I thought it would be prudent to start with 5.7.

One site appears to work properly, but one site doesn't let me "save" any changes I make to global elements, or save when I add a new block. They're both running on the same server, and I installed them both from the same .ZIP file.

When I noticed it happening on the one site, I blasted the file structure, dropped all the tables and did a fresh installation. Right out of the box, I can't save edits.

When I click "Save" in the editing toolbar, the toolbar disappears, but the rest of the page remains "out of focus." Often I can still click in the block and delete words, etc. It just never "finishes" saving, and never drops me back to the page. My only recourse is to refresh and lose my changes.

Any thoughts? Where do I even begin to look for something like this?

I think I solved my own problem. I realized the difference in my two sites: One was using "CloudFlare." I think I just learned that Concrete5 and CloudFlare don't mix.

Fromhttps://www.dreamhost.com/partners/cloudflare/... :
"CloudFlare acts as a proxy between your visitors and DreamHost’s servers, caching content and filtering malicious traffic before it hits the server, improving your website’s overall performance and security."

After I disabled CloudFlare on this domain, then waited about 30 minutes for DNS to propagate, suddenly my problems vanished.

I'd be interested to hear if this is something that could be worked around in the future. CloudFlare sounded like an interesting service to use.

Hi spookcomix,

Have you checked to see if there are CloudFlare options to configure how long content is cached before it expires?
