The BunnyCDN WordPress plugin is causing issues with another Plugin

In some cases, various WordPress theme builder plugins can cause issues when used together with the BunnyCDN plugin (Divi, Elementor etc). To resolve this, we have added a special configuration, allowing you to disable the plugin from activating CDN whilst logged in as an admin.

To enable this, open the BunnyCDN WordPress plugin settings and click CDN.

Finally, enable the Disable for Admin setting at the bottom of the panel.

I have CDN acceleration enabled, and cannot disable for admin

Some plugins have commonly been identified as CDN-unfriendly due to how they are implemented in the Wordpress backend. Some common problems and fixes with popular plugins:

  • I cannot Edit layouts with Divi Builder: Divis new layout editor has backend conflicts with Wordpress API, and how it interacts with the CDN directly. Switching to the default editor fixes this.
  • I cannot interact/update Elementor: This is typically caching related. Adding cache bypass (0 cache time) for */elementor/* in Edge Rules may fix some layout/page update issues.
  • Some other plugin times out: A large number of plugins (even outside of the theme builder plugins), rely on REST API requests through Wordpress and there are compatibility layer issues. Most typically, the X-HTTP-Method-Override header is introduced in this compatibility layer. bunny.net does not forward such headers by default due to security issues. Some plugins require either PUT, POST, DELETE (varies by Plugin basis so please check plugin documentation), but an Edge Rule can be implemented (in this case this would be updating a form from a failing plugin, for example):

If you continue to experience issues after this setting is enabled, please don't hesitate to open a support ticket and we will be happy to help out further.

Other CDN Integration plugins may also have similar issues and offer a similar Disable for admin feature
