And my domain registrar is GoDaddy. Okay, I will go there and put in the nameservers for Cloudflare after I have added my website to Cloudflare.
Just to confirm once again, when I go to GoDaddy, I keep the nameservers for the website on the account I have with InfinityFree. Only put in the nameservers for the same website for the account I have with Cloudflare?
Or do I need remove those nameservers for the website on the account I have with InfinityFree keeping only the nameservers for the same website for the account I have with Cloudflare?
I just want to make sure I’m clear on this.
Also, what must I do on this page from Cloudflare below that says? “Review your DNS records.”
You’ll have to keep only Cloudflare’s nameservers on your domain, don’t keep our nameservers as mixing multiple sets is not recommended for normal operation of your website. Also, the configuration is OK, but the IP the ftp subdomain is pointing to isn’t. It should be pointing to 185.27.134.11 instead, or removed completely as you can also use ftpupload.net or the IP I told you before as host for FTP connection.

Okay. Is it the IP or the FTP subdomain I need to change to 185.27.134.11, or both? And should this change only be made after I updated the domain registrar at GoDaddy with the nameservers from Cloudflare?
The content of the record needs to be that IP, not the name. And you can change records at any time, even after you changed nameservers at GoDaddy’s nameserver change panel.

I’ve just been to GoDaddy where I changed the nameservers to the ones for Cloudflare. The proof is below. Now, I’m going to try to fix that other issue you told me about regarding changing the record of the IP address to 185.27.134.11.
JxstErg1,
Look at the image below. Please confirm with me whether or not this number to the right of “ftp” is the one you said I needed to change. Cloudflare has sent me an email informing me that my website is now active on their platform.
Yes!Your site is working now and is using cloudflare.

Frank419,
Please have JxstErg1 get back with me regarding the issue of the correct record for the IP address. I need to know whether or not the number I have circled in the top image in my last message to him was the one he said needed to change.
Good news! I no longer see the “Not Secure” notice in the upper left corner of my website! Connection is secure! And it’s still submitting my information form to Formspree!
Yeah, you need to change this one.

You can honestly just delete the “ftp” record from Cloudflare, you will never use it, and it’s not needed for your website to function properly.

Okay. Which one is right?? I’m getting two different answers here. You say I should change it. Greenreader9 says I can simply delete it from Cloudflare and that I don’t need it for my website to work properly.
I also said you should remove it, you can choose either one of my choices (if you wanna remove it, do so; if you wanna change it then do so).
I thought you said to only change it. Okay. It looks like this is a decision I’ll have to make on my own. What affect will it have on my website if I keep it the way it is? And are there any other steps I should take to ensure security of my website?
It won’t affect your website if you keep it as it is. And to ensure security of your website, you should consider taking a look at the functionality Cloudflare has to offer. There is also a community guide on how to protect your website on Cloudflare:
(thank you @Oxy for this amazing guide!)

JxstErg1,
I was able to successfully create a new source with Logflare and has successfully installed the app on my website. My new source is: Logflare.cloudflare
Do I need to insert the IP Address Data Enrichment? If so, where would I find this information?
Please tell if I have each of these fields set correctly:
FIELD - Request Method
FIELD - Status Code
FIELD - Connecting IP
FIELD - Ray ID
FIELD - Request URL
FIELD - User Agent
I never installed Logflare on my website, so for that I could make mistakes in this part. The IP Address Data Enrichment is optional; you can also skip that, also the fields are set up correctly.
Well, I wouldn’t want you to make a mistake. It’s very important that I get this done right. Ask Frank419 and Greenreader9 do they have it installed on their website and if either of them can assist me with this. Since the IP Address Data Enrichment is optional, I’m not going to worry about that.
Hi Frank419,
I’ve just created a new email address with clickable link for clients who have questions to ask me. I updated the code with the clickable link and the web capture image of website.
Do I need to submit these updated files to InfinityFree and then to Cloudflare? Or submit them directly to Cloudflare? Would I need to uninstall the Logflare app and delete the current files before replacing them with the updated ones?
Below is an image of the update website with the clickable email address link at the bottom.
