Hi, the https version of the website is not working https://dealz.great-site.net/
This site can’t provide a secure connection

I’ve added the ZeroSSL and I see the following

You need to add the CNAME records, then install the certificate before you can use HTTPS
To get a free SSL certificate from InfinityFree, you need to setup some DNS CNAME records on your domain name. This article describes how to do that. Like videos better? Check out the bottom of this article.
Where do I set up the CNAME records?
The CNAME records should be set up with the DNS hosting provider of your domain name.
Most people will be using the InfinityFree nameservers ns1.infinityfree.com and ns2.infinityfree.com, or the byet.org nameservers. This means you can add the records t…

You need to click on the “Request Certificate” button under the Current Destination field.

I’m sorry, but what URL are you trying to get SSL on?
Your free subdomain, or your custom domain?
If you are using the free subdomain, the records must be set in the control panel.
If you are using the custom domain, please follow this guide , because you are not doing it correctly.

I would ideally like to have both access to the free domain and via the custom subdomain, but the custom subdomain is more important. I’m really confused about those instructions

I have also tried setting an A record to 185.27.134.129 on the CF subdomain

Hold on, let’s take a big step back here.
For starters, the domain next-dealz.com is not assigned to any hosting account, nor is blog.next-dealz.com . If you want to host either of those domains with us, you’ll need to add the domain to your account first:
While a free subdomain is a great way to get started, a website looks a lot more professional with a custom domain name. Fortunately, you can register your own domain name with an external company (like NameSilo ) and use it on InfinityFree.
There are multiple ways you can add the domain name as an account. You can create it as a new account or add it to an existing account.
Before you start: configure your domain’s nameservers
Before you can add the domain name to your account, you need to ver…
Unless you want to do anything with the free subdomain dealz.great-site.net (host a website, install SSL), don’t do anything with it. Don’t request SSL for it, it’s a waste of time if your goal is to setup your custom domain.
If you want to get our free SSL for your domain, you can, but then please go through the setup to get free SSL for YOUR domain , not for a free subdomain you don’t care about.
If you want to use Cloudflare, you can do so too. Please follow this guide to set that up properly:
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 ) and with Custom Sub-Domains (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. Read more here .

You’ll have to change the nameservers to add it to your Hosting Account, but once you add it to your hosting account, you can change them back.

I’ve tried adding the domain to Addon Domains, Parked Domains and subdomain but it isn’t working for me.

That’s because you are using Cloudflare Nameservers. You need to use InfinityFree (epizy) nameservers in order to connect your domain here.
