- Complete Step 1 of the main article so you have your OhhWells records open.
- Sign in at cloudflare.com and select your domain.
- Open DNS, then Records.
- Delete any existing A, AAAA or CNAME records with the name @ (shown as your domain name) or www.
- Choose Add record. Pick type A, enter @ as the name and paste the value OhhWells shows.
- Set Proxy status to DNS only. The cloud icon turns grey. Save.
- Choose Add record again. Pick type CNAME, enter www as the name and paste the value OhhWells shows.
- Set Proxy status to DNS only again. Save.
- Return to OhhWells Site Editor and check the status.
Why "DNS only" matters. With the orange cloud on, Cloudflare sits between your visitors and OhhWells, and the security certificate can fail to set up.
