Accessing this website from IPv6-only server
I recently upgraded the server equipment used to host Mod Share, but one of the issues is that the new server does not come with an IPv4 address, and therefore is unable to connect to IPv4-only servers. I used CloudFlare to prevent this from being a problem for users who have an IPv4-only ISP, but there is one other issue: I am unable to connect to the Scratch API to verify registrations.
Does anybody know any good workarounds that would allow me to access the Scratch API from an IPv6-only server, since the Scratch website is IPv4-only? I found something close (a gateway proxy), but that proxy does not support HTTPS at the moment, preventing me from accessing the API, as the Scratch website requires HTTPS for all connections. Does anybody know any way to force a non-HTTPS connection (I don't really care about encryption in this case since nothing sensitive is being sent) or another way to access IPv4-only sites from an IPv6-only server?

I use crossorigin.me. That might work. If it doesn't have ipv6, you could bug @technoboy10

Yay, so are you un-breaking mod share?

Thank you, that is exactly what I needed. I will implement this tomorrow. I use crossorigin.me. That might work. If it doesn't have ipv6, you could bug @technoboy10
