How to Fix Cloudflare missing admin bar issue on WordPress Websites?

Cloudflare WordPress Plugin is the easiest way of setting up the Cloudflare CDN features for your WordPress websites or blogs. With the help of this plugin you can automatically purge the cache files, check the analytics and some additional features of CDN directly from the admin settings page. In the last release of their plugin version 3.1.1 they have moved Admin Bar behind Automatic Cache Purge toggle. This is causing some inconvenience to the users as they cannot see the admin bar once they visit the website pages.

If you have enabled the Jet pack statistics on admin bar, you also cannot use the feature anymore, as the Cloudflare plugin blocking the admin bar, so you can’t view the last 48 hours visitors statistics.
