My domain forwards to my Facebook page. I want to use the domain to experiment with other features, but can’t find where I have my Facebook profile URL set up.
Looked through the Dashboard. None of the redirects are configured for the domain, yet it works.
I don’t know
The redirect is being done by the HTML on your index page…
<HTML> <HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; url=https://www.facebook.com/jaypoc"> </HEAD> </HTML>

Thanks SJR… The problem is, I don’t have any pages (that I can find) configured in Cloudflare. This was set sometime more than a year ago, and I’m trying to locate where this page could be served from/configured.
I have no workers or pages set up. I am on the Free tier, and wonder if something could have been set up in a trial that I no longer have access to?
Does that hostname point to an origin server where you are hosting an index.html file?
No. The a record for both the root domain and www.to a cloudflare IP address. It’s not a server that I have any control over. Apparently it does load an index file that includes a meta refresh tag with a zero timeout to redirect to the Facebook page, but I’m not sure where that file is hosted. If I uploaded it when I set up the domain, I can’t find where it’s located to update it.
Are you indicating that you have Cloudflare IPs in your Cloudflare dashboard DNS app? That shouldn’t even work at all. Can you double check the IPs here?
I consider myself pretty tech-saavy. Been hosting my own sites since 1998. I do have multiple webservers on AWS, but this the IP shown is not one…The A record for jaypoc.org (and the one for www.jaypoc.org) points to 66.96.161.131 which is a Cloudflare IP. I’ve checked redirects, pages, and gone through all the recommendations by CF’s AI chatbot. I’ve browsed through all the menus, and can’t find what service is serving the page with the redirect. It’s really strange.
It isn’t a Cloudflare IP…

Does your host offer a “domain redirect” option? That may be generating this HTML to do that for you.
As I said, it’s coming from your origin in the HTML, not from Cloudflare.
I thought I looked it up and saw Cloudflare, but I see i was mistaken. I may have looked up another IP on the record (There’s two A records for MX.jaypoc.org that DO point to a cloudflare IP but since they didn’t resolve to anything I assumed they were misconfigured.
That would at least explain why I can’t find the config on here. At least that makes more sense and I can start digging into who that’s hosted with.
So a bit of digging pointed me to the parent company of Web.com…Of which I have used several of their companies in the past… Dotster, Network Solutions, Namecheap, and a few others. I checked the accounts I still have active at those and none of them have an active site. I guess this will remain a mystery for a bit. Thanks for helping point me towards it
They confirmed that the IP was managed by Web.com (Formerly Dotster). I migrated the domain from them to Cloudflare around 2020 or so. Amazing that they didn’t terminate the web hosting/redirect that was set up
