Migrating your domain to Cloudflare

From 14th October 2024 it will be mandatory for your domain to be moved to Cloudflare for anti-DDOS protection.

In order to use Custom Domain (with root domain like e.g. domain.com, yoursite.com, saasstartup.io etc.) you will have to move your entire DNS settings to Cloudfare.

1. First, set up an account with Cloudflare:

Sign up with Cloudflare

1. Navigate to Websites and then Add Domain

Add or migrate your domain to Cloudflare

1. Type or paste your root domain here (like e.g. mystartup.com or mywebsite.io)

Type or paste your root domain for Cloudflare to automatically detect DNS settings

1. Select a FREE plan when prompted

Choose FREE Plan for DDOS protection

1. Continue set up after automatic DNS settings detection by Cloudflare

Copy both these nameservers to your domain registrar (like GoDaddy.com)

Copy these 2 nameservers to your domain registrar - you must REMOVE any other nameserver (NS) settings and just leave these 2 from Cloudfare

1. You will now see pending nameserver updates in the list of your websites

Now you need to paste the nameservers in your registrar domain settings

1. Add both Nameservers provided by Cloudflare above

Change the nameservers provided by CloudFlare

1. Now you should wait for Cloudflare to propagate DNS settings for your domain:

Wait up to 24h for Cloudflare to propagate DNS settings for your Root domain

1. Go back to Fungies.io Dashboard under Settings -> Domain

Copy and paste these DNS settings to your CloudFlare DNS settings

1. Copy Fungies DNS settings to your CloudFlare DNS settings

Finish up by pasting DNS records from Fungies.io Dashboard to CloudFlare DNS settings for the domain
