Let’s say I have example.com
in Cloudflare.
Now I want to have a CNAME record pointing example.com
to something.else.com
and then have a page rule to forward www.example.com
to example.com
.
So after creating the page rule I’ve created an A record for www
pointing to 192.0.2.1
so that the page rule applies and this seems to work.
But now for some reason the CNAME that points example.com
to something.else.com
is not resolving at all.
Can someone give me hand?

That wont work, as a naked domain cannot be a CNAME and will automatically turn into a flattened A record, regardless of whether proxied or not.
If you want a CNAME you will have to use a proper hostname of that domain.

Thanks @sandro .
I thought CNAME flattening would solve that.

It does
but it flattens it into an A record.
