I used to have a Wordpress website through Bluehost, and I used the recommended nameservers to link it to Cloudflare.
A few weeks ago, I’ve transferred it to a Squarespace website.
Everything worked fine.
I then received a Cloudflare email telling me that, because the nameservers had changed, I was no longer making the most of Cloudflare.
So, I swapped them again as specified in the email.
After that, however, my old Wordpress website (instead of the new Squarespace one) would show whenever I typed my domain/URL!

What happens when you move provider?

You will also want to make sure that your Cloudflare DNS contains the same IPs as those provided by Squarespace.
