Problem in connecting cloudflare to cpanel

Hosting Support
1

I’m a on the way web page developer.
I want to redirect all traffic on my website to https, so I’ve decided to use cloudflare but I’m having problem in connecting cloudflare.

Cloudflare is asking me to change the name servers, but I’m not able to find such setting in cPanel. Please help me that how can I change my name servers from cPanel or I can do it with cName records.
Please try to reply quickly. I’ll be very thankful.

Please note that your domain ns can only be changed in your Domain Registrar,not in cpanel

You must change nameservers of your domain through your domain provider.

Thanks for replying.
Can you pls help me further?
Infinity free knowledge base tells about tutorial on namesilo but I can’t spent any money as I’m only allowed to use free services. So can you pls tell me that how can I change my nameserver for free step by step and what is my domain registrar. I’ll be glad if you help me.

Namesilo is a domain registrar(offers tld for cheap price).

Now,who is your domain registrar(Where did you buy it?)

You can get free domain from freenom…

I’m using free domain provided by iFastNet (as I think).
Well I only need it because I want to redirect all traffic through https://
So is there any way by which I can redirect all traffic to https:// without using cloudflare or any extensions from cPanel?
(I’ve already got a SSL certificate and my website works on https:// so I only need to redirect visitors.)

If you really hv a free domain (subdomain does not work) and valid SSL cert installed, add the following to ur .htaccess:-

#Redirect to https
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} =http [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} =""
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
Header always set Content-Security-Policy "upgrade-insecure-requests;"
</IfModule>

@anon77371365
I’ve seen Google firebase mail api, but it needs blaze plan.
Similiarly other libraries are also paid. Are there any other free libraries or api that can be used to send mails?

Sendgrid, Mailgun, Sparkpost, Amazon SES, Elastic Email, Postmark and SMTP2Go are a few of the many providers who offer email sending services. The market for Email Sending Providers (ESP) has many different brands.
