Screenshot of the error

Looks like a loop is occuring due to DNS records pointing to Cloudflare IPs. Could you please share your DNS records for the domain?

Hi, thanks for answering. Where do I get the DNS records? I bought my domain from Godaddy, built site on Groove, and they use cloudflare. thanks!

Could you please link to the instructions given on how to use a custom domain with Groove?

also, i use active campaign for my mailing list, and they said I had to do a “authentication of your domain”. And I know that a nameserver was changed.
The emailing then worked, but maybe this is what messed up my site?
I know this probably sounds simple…I just find it confusing.

Here are the instructions to add a custom domain:

thanks for any guidance

Thanks for that information.

You can only use one set of name servers for your domain. When you use the “full setup” in Groove, you hand over control of the domain and existing DNS records (such as those required for email security) will not work anymore.

Were you already using Cloudflare prior to setting up Groove?
