However, i wanted a specific URL (the one in #1) to redirect to an external website. Is the current setting in screenshot correct? Or will it follow the rule #2 regardless?
thanks @sandro how long does it take for the setting to take effect? I checked the URL but it is not redirecting to the external URL. it redirects instead to the homepage of the domain. so it seems it’s still reading the Rule #2 or should i wait a bit for propagation or something?
Oh I see. The issue is that unfortunately you don’t have control of the domain since Click Funnel controls the settings for it. Page Rules don’t take effect then.
what does it mean switch to www host? perhaps use www version instead? there’s no problem for me with that setting. may i know what rules to activate then?
It goes through Cloudflare because it points the service provider in question, who happens to use Cloudflare, but it is not proxied for the account in question, hence the page rules will never take effect.
What do you mean by “use”? So that requests for the naked domain get redirected to “www”? If so, you should definitely do that. However on Cloudflare you should focus on your www host, as that is the only one you can proxy and have the page rule actually apply to.
