Setting up a Staging Subdomain with InMotion Hosting and Cloudflare

Hello everybody, I need some help getting a subdomain setup and functional. I’m using InMotion Hosting with Cloudflare.

This isn’t my domain, I am doing work for the owner. It seems like the rest of the site is properly configured.

All of the A Records in cPanel point to the server IP.

All of the A records in Cloudflare point to the server IP.

I have Cloudflare SSL/TLS set to Full(strict) and have uploaded an Origin Certificate to the server cPanel. I did this because I thought it would help? The cPanel has AutoSSL.

The website is https://www.babylonwealth.com/ and the staging is https://www.staging.babylonwealth.com/

Please help!

This is a second-level subdomain. Cloudflare’s Universal SSL certificate only covers the domain and one level of subdomain (babylonwealth.com and *.babylonwealth.com - so staging.babylonwealth.com would be ok).

You will need to use the Advanced Certificate Manager if you want www.staging.babylonwealth.com to have a certificate at the Cloudflare edge.

[add] Seems you don’t have a DNS record for www.staging either…
