Hello, I want to add my site to cloudflare but its asking me to remove your nameservers and add theirs. I was wondering if this would mean my site would shutdown or something. Thanks.

It won’t shut down, don’t worry; you can still use Cloudflare with our hosting, just make sure it’s configured as per this guide to stay sure that it still works:

> Hello, I will show you how to easily set up Cloudflare, Edit Records, and Troubleshoot with images! PLEASE READ BEFORE STARTING!!! Cloudflare cannot be used on free subdomains from InfinityFree. You can use Cloudflare on Custom Domains ([yoursite.com](http://yoursite.com)) and with Custom Sub-Domains ([subdomain.yoursite.com](http://subdomain.yoursite.com)). A video tutorial can be found at the end of this guide, should you get stuck. You must connect your domain to your InfinityFree account first.

Now the problem is the SSL option set to “Flexible”, which needs more configuration to work properly:

> WordPress is a great and very popular website building tool, and Cloudflare is a great way to get HTTPS on your website for free. Thanks to Cloudflare’s Flexible SSL system, you don’t even need to manage SSL certificates to use it! However, getting WordPress to show a padlock and make all pages work can be a bit tricky. This article explains a good way to configure your website correctly with Cloudflare Flexible SSL. Heads up! Instead of making WordPress work with Flexible SSL, you can also c…
The easiest and best way to work around this is to configure a self-signed certificate on your hosting account for your domain, then set the SSL option to “Full” in the Cloudflare dashboard, using this article:
