If you are using Cloudflare (or any other CDN), Nginx, Apache or any other web server configuration should be updated with the IP range of CDN to ensure server logs and rate limiting configurations work correctly.

There are many factors affecting the readability of a text much more than justification. Writing a single line of text without using paragraphs or using excessive length of lines are cosmetically the worst practices of writing an article.

Since the early 2000s, when CMS battles took place between software like PHP-Nuke, Post-Nuke and many others, only a few of them have been able to survive, such as WordPress, Drupal and Joomla. With the help of CMS features gained in time, WordPress is now dominating between the survivors. WordPress, which has more than 58% market share among content management systems as of 2017, is being used by about 27% of all web sites on the Internet. Read more →
I am planning to write articles on up-to-date topics like web developing, modern frameworks and libraries, applications and server software. On my hyperactive personal blog, I will write lots of articles periodically, at least yearly. 🙂
