    I'm getting emails from Cloudflare for my domains that they're upgrading them from full to strict.

    I remember @eva2000 suggesting to use full to maybe avoid issues but unsure.


    Is there anything we need to do after the upgrade from full to strict?

    As long as the SSL certificate served by Centmin Mod Nginx is a valid browser trusted cert, Cloudflare Full Strict should be fine. You can always manually change back to CF Full non-strict if there's issues AFAIK.
