XF 1.1 Board URL in options not changing to https

You need to ensure your webserver is configured to accept connections to https and also redirect http connections to https.
This isn't done by simply changing the Board URL. This is very much a server configuration thing so I would suggest speaking to your host for assistance with this.

Followed that and now it says in the address bar it's verified and encrypted, but the site isn't displaying.
Firefox error: The page isn't redirecting properly : This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
Chrome error: This webpage has a redirect loop : The webpage has resulted in too many redirects.

Did you still install a certificate for your domain? Using the Cloudflare Flexible SSL, it can be self signed as it won't be used, but it's still required for Apache to use port 443.
I can't install a certificate myself as that's only with a Business or Enterprise plan. With Flexible SSL, I shouldn't need to though. Port 443 is open.

But there is no httpd conf setting for your domain for 443, that is why your getting the looping error. That's why you need to use at least a self signed certificate.
