Adding a domain through CNAME and still requesting nameservers

I resolved it, as my nameservers at namecheap.com we’re cloudfare’s, at cloudfare i added 2 NS records and typed in as host @ and target ns1.infinityfree.com and it worked

Mixing NS records is not recommended and can result in weird issues.

If changing nameservers is not possible, you can also add your domain with CNAME verification instead:

How to add your domain with CNAME verification

If you want to host your own domain name with InfinityFree, the default way to verify your domain is to set the nameservers first. However, there are cases where setting the nameservers ahead of time is not desirable (for example if you have an existing site which cannot go down) or if your domain provider does not let you set our nameservers. Fortunately, InfinityFree now has the ability to host your domain name with us without having to change your nameservers ahead of time! This guide explai…

i know right, but there was a weird bug, i did it already when i made the topic, it was made, all green, showing that’s all right and when i was clicking on add website nothing was happening, that’s why i mixed them, but it’s working well so

I would still recommend to choose one DNS provider at this point and only use those nameservers. If you want everything on your domain name to work consistently, you have to make sure that all DNS settings are exactly the same on all nameservers. If not, things will not work correctly.

The CNAME or nameserver checks are only done when adding a domain name. Once the domain is added, you can basically do whatever you want in terms of DNS.
