Unable to get "Redirect Rules" to work

[rune3]

I’m trying to create a redirect in the new Redirect Rules, but I am unable to make any of them work.
I have tried the basic examples in

https://developers.cloudflare.com/rules/url-forwarding/single-redirects/examples/

Are there any obvious things that can be wrong if no rules work?

• The domain is handled by Cloudflare and Proxy Status set to Proxied
• In case it interferes, I have disabled the rules under Page Rules
• It’s on Free plan for now, but there should be 20 redirect rules available

Could you please share a screenshot of the rule you created?

Thanks for responding, I actually need a geolocation redirect, but have made this very simple one to check if redirects work at all.

What is your domain?

It’s perhoj.no

When using your domain with a Cloudflare Partner (such as WPEngine in this case), you do not have control over the rules on your zone. The redirects will have to be created in WPEngine.

Wow, I was not aware of that. It’s not really communicated in the interface either.

Tested now, and found a menu in WPengine called “Web rules” that almost matched the settings in Cloudflare. I can do blocking on geolocation there, not redirect, but that will do for now.

Thanks for the hint! I might test to see if pointing Cloudflare to the “legacy network” in stead of the “advanced network” IP addresses on WPengine will enable the rules to work from Cloudflare.
