How do I connect my Wordpress site to my Cloudflare domain? Wordpress servers are not being accepted
I feel like I'm missing something extremely simple.
I bought a domain name registered on a Cloudflare, and made a Wordpress site. I'm trying to connect my Cloudflare Domain to my Wordpress site but my problem is Cloudflare requirres an IPv4 address, while Wordpress on has named servers.
My domain on Cloudflare is currently connected to Cloudflare's named servers, but will not allow me to change them to Wordpress's.
The first two images I posted are from Wordpress while the third is from Cloudflare.
Wordpress tells me all I need to do is:
"Replace all the name servers of your domain to use the following values:
ns1.wordpress.com
ns2.wordpress.com
ns3.wordpress.com"
But if I place any of those named servers into my Cloudflare DNS, I am told an "IPv4 address is required", as seen in Pic #4
Wordpress doe not provide IP addresses though and only uses named servers!
Is there a way to get around this that I'm just missing? I found no help on either Cloudflare or Wordpress's site.
