wouldn't have anything to do with Cloudflare Pages either, but closer? I get redirected to x.com/gridchess, not sure what "does nothing" means
Noh it didn't do anything before
Ni guess had to wait for time to propogate
Cprobably dns cache
Nwhat is
dns related questions roomNso i know where to ask next time
Nthanks
CCfor all the rule types (redirect rules, bulk redirects), dns issues, etc
Ni don't get why i get this
Nnot writing in general as there is context here
Nits weird because sometimes the redirect works but often i get this
dns_probe thingNhappens in safari/chrome
Nperhaps something is off
Wnot a cloudflare bug
Wjust this
Nis that cache on server?
WYou went to the site before the DNS was propagated which means the negative result is now cached
Wno, it's local (it could be your browser, your pc, your network or your isp)
Nwhat is stale time on cache
Wthat depends haha
Wit can vary from person to person
Ni assume this
A
Wi'd recommend trying on a different browser on a different network
NI have one redirect rule that is simple
Nfor some reason redirect is not enough and i need this?
Wit is needed, i don't know what that ip is but if you don't have a record it won't resolve (what you're seeing now)
Nso i aadded it
Nwhy do I need
Abrowsers need to turn
example.com -> <ip address> in order to route requestsNalso why do I need
AAAA, why is redirect alone not enoughWso you need a DNS record for a browser to ever be able to hit Cloudflare
Nso so that
AAAA points to cloudflare?Nthe
100::W100:: itself is a discard address, it routes nowhere
but the record is proxied, so clients will see Cloudflare IPs
but the record is proxied, so clients will see Cloudflare IPs
Wand yes, it'll route to Cloudflare
Wanything proxied will route to Cloudflare
Nit seems to have worked with just
AAAA be thereNno need for
Athat
Ado you want your root to work?
Wi assume you're going from www -> apex
Ni just want to redirect all hits to my site to that static address
Nso www.gridchess.com redirects
or
gridchess.com redirects
and anything past /
or
gridchess.com redirects
and anything past /
Wany (sub)domain you want to do something needs a dns record
Wagain, that's how browsers and other clients know how to hit Cloudflare/your service/whatever
Ndon't need subdomain redirects
Njust root
Ni searched for redirect docs on cloudflare and tbh its unclear what exactly is needed aside from adding the redirect rule like i did here
Wdns record + redirect rule
Wall that's needed
