Cloudflare full help

[SeanCook]

Hi all,
Hope you’re all okay?

For the past few months, I have been using infinity free ssl for my website bizdum.ga
But now it has expired and I wanna use cloudflare to run my website.
I have changed my DNS to that of cloudflare from infinityfree’s own, but I need some more additional info to get it working again.
Like the type of Records and content I need to add.
Please help me.
Thanks.

P.S: I have followed some steps b4, but it’s showing me “site not secure”.

Hi @KangJL
Thanks for your reply. So I followed the steps in the article and I think I’m missing one important part…

When I try to save, I’ll get an error saying: “DNS Validation Error (Code: 1004) CNAME content cannot reference itself.”
The second CNAME works well for me.
Please and let me know the way forward.
Thanks

You’re doin it wrong! Get to your hosting account from client area and copy Main Domain (It looks like random number and words) and here! It’s works!

Thanks again.

How to use cloudflare

DO NOT USE THE CPANEL INTERGRATION This is the proper way (the cpanel thing is broken) Change your name servers to cloudflare Set up cloudflare through the dashboard Add these cname records at cloudflare: Name: @ Content: your main domain Name: www Content: @ Make sure to click the orange cloud until it goes gray Pros Bypass cookie / javascript checks Full DNS management I hope this helped I forgot this, but ANY DNS records need to be added through Cloudflare, not vPanel (thanks…

your main domain is this
