Many people here have asked for a way to disable ?i=1 or want to know how to disable it. Well, I will tell you here how to do it: # How to disable ?i=1 Suffix 1. Enable CloudFlare through Cpanel or transfer your domain to them 2. (Optional) Enable the SSL use by selecting Flexible in the Crypto/SSL) section It should be disabled in 2-24 hours! ## A logical explanation of why does that happen First of all, when you enable CloudFlare through Cpanel a CNAME Record is added so that your domain points to: yourdomain.com.cdn.cloudflare.net
That is very important, because that new domain is not hosted on ProFreeHost, so it doesn’t have the ?i=1 suffix, and because of your domain pointing to there, your main domain also doesn’t have it, it completely disables it until you disable CloudFlare. This is also true on when you tranfer your domain to CloudFlare. # What next? Now the ?i=1, alongside with some of its limits is gone. Keep in mind that if you disable CloudFlare, it will be back. If you don’t want to use CloudFlare, you should upgrade to [premium hosting](https://www.nxdhost.com premium hosting). There, you will have some other benefits also such as a free LE certificate, Railgun and so on.

Such Problem occurs when user remove it from PFH or uses Subdomain else like Blogger or Tumblr which causes that error. ? Edited by @ChrisPAR to add explanation given below by @ranakhas
The exact opposite @ranakhas! Flexible can cause SSL Handshake error! Full is better! Wrong, did not know what SSL Handshake error is, thanks @ranakhas
> @ChrisPAR said: > The exact opposite @ranakhas! > Flexible can cause SSL Handshake error! Full is better! I’m hoping you don’t know about SSL Handshake Error it cause when Full or Struct SSL is chosen and no SSL is installed on Origin Server but good thing is that it can work with self-signed SSL too.

It doesn’t matter here, there are self-signed SSL autoinstalled, so where is the problem?

Well, that is correct now. In case someone finds this, please ignore my original post and set your SSL to Flexible as Full will now cause issues.
