    See this article from InfinityFree's community forum.

     

    https://forum.infinityfree.net/t/a-full-guide-to-cloudflare/44451

    Thanks for that link, but that tutorial mentions about getting the IP address from the control panel at infinityfree to create the A records at Cloudflare. But the Infinityfree cpanel looks completely different to the vistapanel and I see no where in Vistapanel where it shows you what your IP address is?

    If i run a ping against the domain name registered on the clients account it comes back with an IP of 185.27.134.149 would that be the correct one for making the A records?

  2. A client wanted to enable the Cloudflare option in the Cpanel for their free hosted account but yet the option appear to have been removed, I have connected to their control panel myself and cannot find the option to enable cloudflare when i looked.

    Is this a bug or has cloudflare been removed from the free hosts cpanel? As I can find no announcement to notify if this feature has been taken away. And as i had advertised on my reseller site that 1 click cloudflare enabling was available from the cpanel it has been removed do i need to edit my reseller site to remove that reference?

     

  3. Does anyone know what is supported on free hosting regarding emails?

    According to the website hosting demo templates provided by MOFH here https://myownfreehost.net/templatedemos.php the email feature are:

    Webmail
    check.png
    Email Accounts ([email protected])
    check.png
    Email Forwarders
    check.png
    MX Record Entry
    check.png
    SPF Records
    check.png

    I have tried to access webmail and the webmail server does not accept any logins. I also set up a email forwarder but never received the test emails I sent to that address and they get undeliverable return messages after a couple of days. This is bad as this was the email address i created for my hosting website which means I cannot respond to any email sent by customers, I can use a gmail email account but this does not look as professional as [email protected]

    I have seen another post on the forum which says email forwards and webmail are only available on paid hosting, if this is the case why are they are listed as free hosting features in website templates offered by MOFH?

    UPDATE: I am not sure if part of the problem is that my MX records are not correct. I opened a support ticket to see whether my MX records need updating as I am using cloudflare on my site and perhaps the MX records are incorrect

    Okay, but I don't have that edit button... 

    That is strange why you can't edit your posts even though your status on the board says your a senior member and have made over 300 posts. The only reason i can see is that I created my account in May 2017 and you created yours in August 2017, so perhaps the board admins removed the option somewhere between those dates for new members but not for existing users. Perhaps open a support ticket and mention it to the admins and they can enable it.

    Im currently patching my Free Login Templete :

     

    Check it out!

    New version will support SSL and the ability to define some URL's also added terms and condition page

     

    The customer sign up and login looks very interesting, I will check it out. It is good to see people are actively improving the software as the signup and login pages provided by MOFH are very basic.

    I got this message :

    This is the form code I changed to make it work on my site, I am working on the live site rather than from a localhost, so i don't know if that might make a difference as perhaps the securesignup.net site checks the IP of the site posting the form to see if it is coming from their own servers?

    I changed the form post location in the sign up page form to use https://securesignup.net/register2.php as discussed in this thread. I also changed it to load the captcha image from the securesignup page so you don't get any errors about it not being secure due to mixed content, when I did a test order and clicked on the register button it goes through to the confirmation page but registration email does not arrive. I waited over 20 minutes and checked my spam folder but nothing there. So we are so close to having a working solution, it just needs the activation emails to arrive and then we can start to offer full HTTPS on our signup pages.

    UPDATE: I tried again using a gmail email and this activation email did arrive, not sure why it didn't work with the other email address I tried as I am able to receive message successfully from other website to that address. So it does look like we now have a way of offering the signup page over HTTPS which should make it much more attractive to potential customers :)

     

    Just to let people know, the SSL / HTTPS was achieved by enabling Cloudflare for my domain and setting it in the options on there. I recommend using Cloudflare if you haven't enabled it already from your MOFH account, as other than the free CA signed SSL you can get from them it also offers DDOS protection and caching meaning your bandwidth usage will be reduced and your site should load faster.

  8. It appears that they have started to use Lets encrypt certs at least for the Cpanel logins. I logged in today and noticed that it didn't pop up the usual error and when I checked there was a certificate that had been issued on 8 June. There is an announcement on the forums from 3 June to say they were starting to roll it out. They just need to fix the login form so it will work with SSL enabled then it will look a lot better than customers getting warning messages about it not being secure.

  9. Hi, I enabled SSL on my website www.turnkeyresellerwebhosting.com through cloudflare so that I could server my pages under HTTPS it all worked ok until it came to customers signing up for an account. When the customer clicks on the register button after signup it throws an error message.

    ERROR #8938749304 Your browser does not appear to be sending refer information this is a requirement

    I have test from both firefox and chrome and get the same problem, if i remove the HTTPS then it works ok, but then Firefox warns the user that the connection is not secure which will put off a lot of people from signing up.

    I believe it is caused because you are going from HTTPS to HTTP during the signup as it takes me to order.turnkeyresellerwebhosting.com but HTTPS does not work on this connection because it is self signed. I tried putting the following code into the header

    <meta name="referrer" content="origin">

    But then i get error Posting Error, please contact support

    Can we have a solution to enable HTTPS for the signup form?

    Perhaps all resellers could have it setup to offer a free letsencrypt SSL cert? Then the signup and cpanel pages could also be served over SSL, especially with many browsers now warning if you try to enter form information on a none HTTPS page
