Hi
I have problem with Firefox , could NOT log in. But when I used the Brave browser there where no problem at all .... ?

EDIT :
Got this error from Firefox : (Used Google translate)

Secure connection failed

The connection to the server was interrupted while a page was loading.

The page you are trying to access cannot be displayed because the authenticity of the transmitted data could not be verified.
Contact the site owner and inform them of the problem.
That sounds like a different problem than what we are discussing in this thread.

Or maybe that's because of the new Cloudflare DNS. It has not yet propagated to me. I still see the old IP until my DNS has refreshed itself. Should still take 53 minutes on my side.

Oh no. I got logged out from the German Board and I am not able to login again or to reset my password. It says the form was invalid. :|

Hi
You are probably right. Now I can login with Firefox again...

I changed the IP address of *.purebasic.fr to the old one locally on my side and the login to the German board is working again.
I can only assume that Cloudflare does cache pages with POST forms and also caches the CSRF token in it which is then invalid for everyone else that retrieves that cached result.

What a bummer. :|

Thanks for trying out that solution though. I was really hoping this could be helpful but it seems Cloudflare maybe just does a bit too much here.

as i understand cloudflare did NOT work
confiderng that its not good idea to ALL be behind a single company (which also charges)

have alternative methods like https://anubis.techaro.lol/ (the one used in EnglishAmigaForum) and others which i a free opensource solution
maybe consider ?
