Cloudflare Settings Navigate to Settings → Cloudflare Settings to manage Cloudflare integration and cache. Understanding Cloudflare’s Role Cloudflare is essential to Turbo Subdomains’ subdomain creation system. When you create a subdomain: Turbo Subdomains communicates with Cloudflare API Cloudflare creates a CNAME record pointing subdomain to main domain DNS propagation happens automatically (typically within minutes to 24 hours) Subdomain becomes accessible as independent website Pre-Configuration: TurboWare support team configures all Cloudflare settings during initial setup, so you typically don’t need to modify anything here. Turn Off TSD Defaults Purpose: Disable all Turbo Subdomains’ default Cloudflare configurations When to Use: You want complete manual control over Cloudflare settings Need to customize settings directly in Cloudflare dashboard Troubleshooting specific Cloudflare-related issues What It Disables: Wildcard CNAME management Automatic caching rules Speed optimization settings Smart routing configurations Warning: Only use this if you understand Cloudflare’s technical aspects. Disabling defaults may break subdomain functionality if not properly reconfigured manually. Process: Click “Turn Off TSD Defaults” button Confirm action Manually configure settings in Cloudflare dashboard Purge Cache Purpose: Clear Cloudflare’s cached content to resolve display issues When to Use: Content updates not appearing on subdomains Old versions of pages still showing CSS/styling changes not taking effect After major configuration changes How It Works: Clears all cached files across Cloudflare’s global network Forces fresh content retrieval from your server Typically takes 5-30 minutes to propagate globally Process: Click “Purge Cache” button Wait for confirmation message Check subdomain after 5-10 minutes Best Practice: Use cache purging sparingly. Frequent purging can temporarily slow down site performance while cache rebuilds.
