What is the issue you’re encountering

I just recently changed my domain records from Digital Ocean to Cloudflare but it is not working .

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

Steps I had taken was to check community for a solution.

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

Changed the records from Digital Ocean to Cloudlflare and added Cloudflare name servers on namechape.

Looks fine to me?

I see this when I open the site:

We've finished preparing your site for you. Here are the next steps:

Is that not what you expected to see?

So the thing is that before this i had 3 name records which were for a droplet in digital ocean. And they showed the site , and every other thing. And not the laravel forge page. However when i shifted it to cloudflare , it stopped showing me the website.

Please check that you are using the Full (strict) SSL mode in Cloudflare. If you are using Flexible, change to Full (strict).

Also, these 3 Digital Ocean nameservers need to be removed leaving just the 2 Cloudflare nameservers, or your domain will remain pending.

I had removed them , but this seems to be taking a lot of them. Like how many hours should it take that my website works properly.

Converted the SSL to full strict mode. I had a let’s encrypt certificate at Laravel Forge , the service i use for deploying my code. But , yeah site still seems to be down.

So i also followed this guide for my reference and did all the steps. But yet it seems to still not work.

Your Cloudflare setup seems ok…

…and your site loads for me in a browser.
