Cloudflare settings when cloudflare is the registrar

[thewriters]

Cloudflare is my Registrar for many urls. All your help articles are for finding A records, Cname, etc. on godaddy or the like. Where can I find this information for urls registered at Cloudflare?

• forwarding/redirect through Cloudflare needs A records, etc. for hungrydictator.com, littlebearbooks.com
  I’m also having trouble using those urls to connect with my sites on bluehost. Do you have any how to’s so i can get this done?
  other sites - badasskorean.com peteliptak.com petespoetry.com thewritersink.com, etc.

Everything was quite easy and well documented when i used godaddy or namecheap - but there seems to be no documentation when using Cloudflare as registrar of the domain names. - or at least i can’t seem to find a way to type it so it come up in the search.

Your DNS records for any domain should match the DNS records at the webhost where your site is located. Once your site is on Cloudflare, it should have already imported (or you typed them in) the DNS records necessary for your domain to function. hungrydictator doesn’t look to have DNS records, so you would have to get those IP addresses from the web host.

Forwarding/Redirect is done through a Page Rule in the domain that’s doing the forwarding. You would Match: example.com/ and add a URL Forwarding (Code 301) setting to go to the new site.

Instructions for these procedures are at support.cloudflare.com

Redirecting One Domain to Another

This tutorial covers redirecting one domain to another. For this, we will be redirecting domainA.com to domainB.com. The following settings need to be configured under the domain you are redirecting from, in this example, this is domainA.com Step 1, The DNS Record: The first thing you will need is a DNS record for @, www and any other subdomains you want to redirect, set to . This can point to any IP address as the redirection page rule will execute first. I would recommend pointing…

I followed the directions you suggested, but keep getting redirected to http://webhelper.centurylink.com/search/?q=http://www.hungrydictator.com/

DNS needs time to propagate. Your ISP is being naughty and hijacking empty DNS responses. It’s working for me now.
