How to connect your domain to NexPK through Cloudflare.

Updated 4 weeks ago 50 views

Cloudflare can be used to manage your domain's DNS while your website is hosted on NexPK.

This setup allows you to keep Cloudflare as your DNS provider while directing web traffic to your NexPK hosting server.

Steps

  1. Log in to your Cloudflare account.
  2. Select your domain.
  3. Open DNS → Records.
  4. Add the DNS records required for your NexPK hosting service.
  5. For your main domain, create an A record pointing to the NexPK hosting IP provided for your service.

Example:

Type: CNAME Name: @ Content: onboard.nexpk.qzz.io

For www, you can create:

Type: CNAME Name: www Target: onboard.nexpk.qzz.io

For subdomains, you can create:

Type: CNAME Name: * Target: onboard.nexpk.qzz.io

  1. Save the DNS records.
  2. Make sure your domain is also configured inside your NexPK hosting account/HestiaCP.
  3. Wait for DNS changes to propagate.
  4. Open your domain and verify that your website loads.

Cloudflare Proxy

If you enable the Cloudflare proxy, the DNS record will show as Proxied.

For troubleshooting, you can temporarily switch the record to DNS Only to determine whether the issue is related to Cloudflare or the NexPK server.

Important

Do not point your website's @ or www record to ns1.nexpk.qzz.io or ns2.nexpk.qzz.io simply because they are NexPK nameservers.

Nameservers and website DNS records serve different purposes.

Also Self-Signed or Lets Encrypt SSL certificate should be configured to avoid Too Many Redirects Errors.
