Downtime and SSL

The site was down for 20 minutes there after I turned on SSL (which makes the site use secure HTTPS connections rather than just HTTP). Turns out I had to change the SSL setting for the domain on CloudFlare from "Flexible" to "Full". People don't tell you stuff like that until your site goes down.
