Using Cloudflare SSL certificate for Subdomain with www

Security
#1

I am looking to have a solution for using Cloudflare Dedicated SSL certificate for my website subdomains. I have purchased the $10/month package with expectation that I could setup a wildcard hostname with the www.

I want my subdomains to load with the SSL certificate and I have more than 100 subdomains available for my domain. I don’t want to add each subdomain with www as a hostname but use a wildcard format.

I am inspired after reading the following posts-

My current hostnames are-
.example.com, example.com, .www.example.com

I added *.www.example.com to work for subdomain like www.sub.example.com but it seems not working! I think the wildcard format is incorrect.

I want my SSL certificate works for all addresses like below-

I am quite confused if it’s really possible with the Cloudflare!

Thanks for the help!

That’s not a Cloudflare limitation. In certificates, the wildcard can only be in the leftmost position.
