I would like to enable CloudFlare’s SSL on my website, but I’m confused on what I’m meant to do. Is it safe for me to change my nameservers to CloudFlare, or am I meant to add that on top of InfinityFree’s nameservers?
Please try explain exactly what needs to be done, thank you.
I checked your website and it’s currently using the Cloudflare control panel integration. That means your domain name is using Cloudflare and is all set up.
The next thing to check is to see whether your domain has active Cloudflare SSL. You can do that by typing https:// before your domain in the address bar, e.g. https://kamildev.net/ From my end, I can see your website with a green lock in the address bar.
If you want all visitors to use HTTPS by default, you’ll need to configure your website to enforce that. You can learn of a few approaches here:
Since you’re using our control panel integration, your domain name should still point to our nameservers. If you want to use Cloudflare’s nameservers instead, that’s all up to you, but you should disable our integration and sign up with Cloudflare directly to do that.
Just make sure that you never mix multiple sets of nameservers on your domain. Doing so can lead to very weird issues and random behavior. Don’t do so unless you’re 100% sure of what you’re doing, and what the effects are going to be. You can use our nameservers OR use Cloudflare’s nameservers, but definitely should not be using both at the same time.
Uhh, so I tried disabling CloudFlare from cPanel and removing from CloudFlare, but my website isn’t connecting…
It’s weird, seems like it can’t find the server unless you use www.kamildev.net, which I don’t want and never configured as such – I think I did something wrong
Should I wait for this to be fixed or do I just try adding manual CloudFlare now?
The Cloudflare control panel integration breaks subdomains entirely. They’re inaccessible, both through Cloudflare and directly.
If you sign up with Cloudflare directly, you can use subdomains. If you do, please do make sure you’ve added the subdomain through both our panel (to setup the web server) and through Cloudflare (to set up the DNS).
The www seemed to be just a DNS issue, seems like it doesn’t force www anymore.
Can I add back my site (as I removed it) using the same CloudFlare account created for me by InfinityFree, since I want to keep all my notifications in one email,
Tomorrow I’ll try adding it manually and hope everything works out. Thanks for all the help.
Can anyone check https://kamildev.net please… It’s been 2 days since I enabled the manual CloudFlare, everyone says they have HTTPS on my website, but looks like for my whole WiFi it’s still HTTP (checked on all devices which have never been on my website before)
EDIT: Most definitely something wrong with my network caching, maybe. I’ll try read about that, if anyone has any ideas on what I should do.
I have a cloud computer on a different network, and HTTPS works fine on its browser. It is definitely my WiFi network, if anyone knows how to fix this, please.
