Tips

1. Disable the Cloud for both your A records and enable it back right after your Domain becomes active. Otherwise you'll receive an Error 525.

An orange cloud means your web traffic is running through Cloudflare making your site faster, safer and smarter.

A gray cloud means your web traffic is not running through Cloudflare.

\ ​2. Go to the Crypto section and change the SSL to Full. Don't select the Full (Strict) option, as this may result in an invalid SSL certificate.\ ​

*It can take up to 72 hours to process these changes; your website might not be accessible through your custom domain during this time.
