What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

Nameservers changed to cloudflare but still invalid on Cloudflare

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

The nameservers are required to be changed to Cloudflare before transferring the domain. This has been done on the current registrar Blacknight. Using a website like nslookup.io it shows the domain’s DNS servers are correctly pointing to Cloudflare. But on my profile it still says invalid nameservers.

The correct NS records are shown here:
https://www.nslookup.io/domains/linkgalway.com/dns-records/

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

Nameservers

The domain is linkgalway .com it is incorrectly showing linkgalway.ie in the start of the post due to preview link redirecting

You have added NS records to your DNS, which is not the correct thing to do…

Instead you need to change the authoritative nameservers at your registrar from the 4 blacknightdns.com ones to the 2 allocated Cloudflare nameservers.
