    1. On my dashboard there is NO TAB for Design. There is no tab for Template or Layout either. Is this a design flaw that I can't get around until someone fixes it on the other end? Thanks.

      1. Yeah! Something like that! Are you just author of the site and admin is someone else? If so, you can't see these tabs.

I had a jQuery code written to make all the external links open in new tab.

So what happens when you introduce Cloudflare into your domain? DNS Redirect. Your custom domain will be configured with the proxy info provided by Cloudflare and when the request is hit, DNS redirect happens. DNS redirect is bad for the site's health. A number of reasons, but the most important is that some browsers, when it detects a DNS redirection, it thinks that it is a phishing site. What is a DNS redirect?
