What is the name of the domain?
helencochraneart.com
What is the error number?
Site Can’t Be Reached - DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
What is the issue you’re encountering
DNS not transferring/updating
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
I’ve tried to go through dns history and checks online but can’t seem to figure it out. Initially I just tried to transfer DNS servers to cloudflare and continue to host the domain on weebly, but when that didn’t work, I assumed fully transferring the domain to cloudflare could create new DNS records and make the website work, although it doesn’t seem to have done anything yet. (I have only waited 24 hours, but the website says “active” on cloudflare dashboard)
What feature, service or problem is this related to?
DNS not responding/updating

Thanks heaps Neil, I’ll be back here if it continues not to work but hopefully it is all fixed up soon.

Do you also know why my CNAME connection to my other website won’t allow me to open the domain using “www”. Have I set it up wrong?
From the screenshot shared, I see that you’re using CF pages. In this case, add the content of pages to www. Example: something.pages.dev and set it to proxied.
Like this? Idk if it updates straight away but still didn’t work
This usually happens automatically when CF pages asks you to make those changes it the record and adds the necessary records. You may try again to setup domain again.
Do you know the best way to go about setting up the domain again? It is hosted by cloudflare, so I’m not sure what happens if I delete it from my domains and try to re-add it
I’d go to the Cloudflare pages where I had set custom domain for the project and adjust; that’d be the best way to fix.
