I’ve recently added 2 new CNAME records to my DNS, but when I enter the same “name” used in the CNAME record into a DNS checker, I am shown that these records are not propagating.
How can I fix this?
Welcome to the Cloudflare Community. 
Change the CNAMEs from 
to 
. When a CNAME is it is published as A and AAAA records that are used by the Cloudflare proxy. If you need the record to be published as a CNAME, it must be DNS Only.
You can share your domain name and the CNAME hostnames if you would like the Community to look into it deeper.
Thank you for your reply.
I have already changed the CNAMEs to DNS only.
My domain name is “money-methods.com”
The CNAME hostnames are as followed:
1 - moneymethods
2 - _a73d37d68674803e40125dd47a7f7708.moneymethods
They are this way because I am trying to get a subdomain validated on a website named “systeme.io”
Both Exist:
dig moneymethods.money-methods.com +short
d2qm4558273k8m.cloudfront.net.
dig _a73d37d68674803e40125dd47a7f7708.moneymethods.money-methods.com +short
_66afced6acf4dd1eb42153c7cea6abb6.mhbtsbpdnt.acm-validations.aws.

The domain I am trying to integrate is named “moneymethods.godaddysites.com”. DNS is not propagating for that one in specific.
Your record you have input your dashboard is for moneymethods.example.money-methods.com.
This actually resolves:
dig CNAME moneymethods.example.money-methods.com +short
Example.cloudfront.net.
If you want the record moneymethods.money-methods.com to resolve only put moneymethods in for the CNAME section in the dashboard and not moneymethods.example.com

I am trying to get the record “moneymethods.godaddysites.com” to resolve. How would I do that?
Could you please explain what you are trying to do with more detail?
If you want to create a record for moneymethods.godaddysites.com that would need to be added on the godaddysites.com domain instead of the money-methods.com domain.
