Hello,
I’ve got a wordpress site: eg www.website.com which is pointing to/hosted by cloudflare
I’ve added subdomains: eg www.green.website.com but a server error msg appears.
When I asked my webhost i was told to add the subdomains to cloudflare but i’m not sure how. Do I create a new account?
I’m on the free package.
thanks
Judge

I’m sorry if this is obvious. I’m a complete novice.
I’m following the steps here:
Please note, this tutorial post contains links to external sites. I am not endorsing any external links.
This tutorial post covers the first steps you should take if SSL is working on your main domain, but not on a subdomain.
1. Is there a DNS record for it?
Check the DNS app in your Cloudflare dashboard to see if there is a DNS record there for that subdomain.
2. Check that the DNS record is working correctly
You can use a tool such as https://dnschecker.org , enter the subdomain.domain.com …
I’ve added to cloudflare’s dns (green.newsite.com )
and now I get the following error:
Sorry, this page doesn’t exist.
Please check the URL or go back a page.
404 Error. Page Not Found.
This is a change because before it said server error
I then checked:
and without the https:// part, the domain shows up on ultratools
eg
green.newsite.com
Yet, there’s still the 404 message
Is there something obvious I’ve missed?
Your site isn’t accessible at all.
