Issues with CloudFlare

If your site is connected to CloudFlare, make sure that you have disabled the Proxy setting in your DNS records, otherwise you may see issues whilst attempting to verify your URL.


Issues with WPMUDev

If your site is hosted with WPMUDev, you should not have any issues with verifying your URL, however, you may see issues whereby the data does not load into the app. This can potentially be caused by the Object Cache WPMUDev uses. If you clear this cache, it should allow the content to display in the customizer afterwards.
