Lovevera Care: CraftCMS Server Migration to Hetzner, Cloudflare R2 Asset Delivery & Turnstile Implementation for a Modern Elderly Care Platform
We helped Lovevera Care, a modern, user-oriented elderly care platform offering individuals the possibility to find long-term care across the UK, move their CraftCMS website from the previous server to Hetzner, use Cloudflare R2 as an optimized media asset delivery system, and replace Google reCAPTCHA with Cloudflare Turnstile to provide more accessible and privacy-friendly user verification. The entire engagement was completed within 4 weeks, with tangible results, including enhanced platform performance, reliability, scalability, and security.
The Business Needs
When Infrastructure Limitations Start Affecting the Experience of a Platform Serving Vulnerable Users
Imagine a platform serving some of the most vulnerable users that begins to have negative effects on the experience. When infrastructure limitations start to impact the experience.
Lovevera Care is a business that trusts, is accessible and reliable, and isn’t just a business priority; it is an ethical obligation. Visitors to the platform who are looking to explore long-term care options are in sensitive emotional situations, and slow or unreliable digital experiences detract from the brand’s modern and people-centric offering.
There was a need to meet performance and scalability requirements of the platform using current server infrastructure. The platform’s content and media needs increased, and the shortcomings of the existing hosting environment became increasingly evident, including issues with page load times, the delivery of media, and confident scaling to accommodate growing demand. These performance indicators were a direct threat to family trust and brand credibility for a care platform where 1st impressions are crucial when families are making big decisions.
One major challenge was media delivery: a platform that relies on a lot of assets for its content, including images and media to communicate the warmth and quality of Lovevera Care’s services, was being delivered without optimisation and a global delivery infrastructure to ensure fast, consistent delivery to all users on all devices regardless of where they are.
The current Google reCAPTCHA integration on forms on the platform was also causing accessibility and privacy issues. For a platform that caters to an older age group and their families, including people with accessibility requirements, reCAPTCHA’s visual difficulties and the privacy concerns were not in line with Lovevera Care’s values of modernity, accessibility, and people-focused. Cloudflare Turnstile provided a better (cleaner, more privacy-respecting) alternative that would enhance the form experience without sacrificing security.
About Our Client: Keserv Polanski, Project Manager at Parrot Creative, Poland, engaged our team for a white-label server migration and infrastructure upgrade engagement for Lovevera Care — delivering improved platform performance, optimized media delivery, and a more accessible user verification experience for a UK-based elderly care platform.
Our Approach
Executing a Precise Server Migration and Infrastructure Upgrade for a Care Platform Where Reliability Is Non-Negotiable
The engagement was structured across three parallel workstreams, server migration to Hetzner, Cloudflare R2 asset domain implementation, and Cloudflare Turnstile integration, with careful sequencing to ensure each element was implemented correctly and validated before the next dependency was introduced.
The server migration to Hetzner was approached with a staging-first methodology, with the full CraftCMS platform, built on Laravel 13 and PHP 8.3, replicated and validated on the new Hetzner infrastructure before any DNS changes were made to the live environment. This approach ensured that the existing live site remained fully operational throughout the migration process, with zero risk of service disruption to elderly care users and their families accessing the platform during the transition.
The CraftCMS and Laravel 13 stack was configured correctly on the Hetzner environment, with PHP 8.3 server settings, database configuration, environment variables, and all platform dependencies verified and validated for correct operation on the new infrastructure. Sugar CRM integration was tested and confirmed operational within the new server environment before go-live.
Cloudflare R2 was implemented as the asset delivery layer, configuring a dedicated asset domain routed through Cloudflare R2 to serve all media content with optimized delivery performance. This implementation offloaded media serving from the origin server, reducing server load and ensuring fast, reliable media delivery regardless of user location or device.
The Google reCAPTCHA to Cloudflare Turnstile migration was implemented across all platform forms, replacing the existing verification mechanism with Turnstile’s privacy-preserving, accessibility-friendly challenge system. The implementation was validated across all form touchpoints to ensure seamless operation without breaking any existing form submission flows or Sugar CRM integrations.
The Solution
What It Delivers for Lovevera Care
A Faster, More Reliable Platform for Families Making Important Decisions
The Hetzner server migration gives Lovevera Care a significantly more performant and reliable hosting infrastructure, ensuring the platform loads quickly and consistently for elderly individuals and their families at every visit.
Media That Loads as Warmly as It Looks
Cloudflare R2 asset delivery means the imagery and media that communicate the quality and care of Lovevera Care’s services now load fast and reliably across all devices and locations, with no slow assets undermining first impressions.
A Server Built to Grow With the Platform
Hetzner’s scalable infrastructure gives Lovevera Care room to expand its content, features, and traffic without outgrowing its hosting environment, eliminating the performance ceiling that the previous server was approaching.
Verification That Respects Every User
Replacing Google reCAPTCHA with Cloudflare Turnstile removes the accessibility friction and privacy concerns of visual CAPTCHA challenges, delivering a form experience that is genuinely inclusive and aligned with Lovevera Care’s people-centric brand values.
Zero Disruption During the Transition
The staging-first migration approach ensured the live platform remained fully operational throughout the entire server move; families accessing the Lovevera Care website during migration experienced no downtime or degraded service.
CRM Integration Preserved and Validated
Sugar CRM integration was fully tested and confirmed operational in the new server environment — ensuring no disruption to the lead capture and care enquiry workflows that the Lovevera Care team depends on.
A Clean Infrastructure Foundation for Future Development
With Laravel 13, PHP 8.3, Hetzner hosting, and Cloudflare’s delivery and security layer in place, Lovevera Care now operates on a modern, well-architected infrastructure stack that supports confident future development and enhancement.
