Change Web Host For Domain registered with cloudflare registrar

[arshsinghmultani]

You can edit all Records containing OLD IP address and replace them with new one.

Also this is what i found for your webhost:

" If you wish to point your domain to Awardspace without modifying your Name Server records, you can use an A record (also known as a web server’s IP address) instead. Your Server’s IP address can be found in the Information section of your Domain Manager "

Yes, thank you so much. I am really grateful.

Please, just to be safe, is there any other thing I need to change?

[arshsinghmultani]

if your new web host is already setup, thats all you need to do and you will be good to go.

[btrtelevision18]

Thank you, but on trying to change the values, I get the following error:
DNS Validation Error (Code: 1004): This DNS record cannot be proxied - click the cloud icon to turn it gray to proceed (Code: 9041)

And also, i want to delete the existing subdomains (tagged blog and tv) do I just click on delete?

What are you trying to change it to?

[btrtelevision18]

this address supplied by Awardspace

185.176.43.84

[arshsinghmultani]

Screenshot of error and details you are putting in?

[sandro]

That should work just fine. Can you post a screenshot of the error you get, including the form where you entered the data.

[btrtelevision18]

I’ve been trying to input the address into the main site url A recprd box(btrtelevision.com)

[sandro]

Works just fine for me. Make sure you have no additional spaces when you enter it.

[arshsinghmultani]

Or trying removing the record and add it again with new ip?

[btrtelevision18]

Alright, thank you so much. I will try now

You guys are so wonderful, I have been able to change them. Thank you so much.

Just waiting for propagation now. I am really grateful for the help once again.

[sandro]

Propagation shouldnt apply in this case as the entries are proxied. It only needs to become active within Cloudflare, which is a matters of seconds, minutes at worst.

[btrtelevision18]

Thanks for your help, However, I’ve not been able to set the site up successfully.

Turns out Awardspace did not have what I was looking for, so I have an hosting with Namecheap but I have not been able to add the domain as an add-on domain in my namecheap hosting panel as it is telling me the domain is pointed to remote nameservers.

The verification is not working either as I have added the TXT record but namecheap doesn’t seem to see it.

Please any help would be highly appreciated. This has cost me a lot already. thanks again. Below is a screenshot of the current records I set for the domain at Cloudflare

@btrtelevision18

I have not been able to add the domain as an add-on domain in my namecheap hosting panel as it is telling me the domain is pointed to remote nameservers.

Can you confirm with them whether you can have an addon domain without that domain pointing to their nameservers?

The current settings cant work as that IP address is - presumably - incorrect. However something loads on your site right now, so maybe you changed the entries meanwhile.

[btrtelevision18]

Thanks all, I have been able to add it from my new host side. Thanks for your help
And i hope Cloudflare adds options to change nameservers very soon…cost me a lot of time today

Edit: i thought i posted this yesterday

[btrtelevision18]

Thanks so much. Yes I went ahead to change all the entries and got it to work yesterday.
