When you use CloudFlare DNS only you don't get any CloudFlare SSL because your websites aren't tunneled through the CloudFlare CDN network. You are only using their DNS hosting and nothing else if you want to follow this guide and have LE SSL/TLS.
How everyone seems to ignore this although it is mentioned in the thread. Did I explain it wrong? Not enough detail? What would help to make it more understandable?

Quote:Just as a note: when you create the DNS records for your domain simply don't tunnel them through CloudFlare (the little cloud icon should be grey) to use only their DNS service and omit any other feature such as their own SSL service or others.
