Advanced Edge Certificate keep pending validation
I ordered the Advanced Certificate ($10/month subscription), but it remains stuck at "Pending Validation". A quick search suggests this could be related to the DNSSEC settings.
I tried enabling DNSSEC, but it keeps showing:
"DNSSEC is pending while we wait for the DS to be added to your registrar. This usually takes ten minutes, but can take up to an hour."
I also checked using dig @1.1.1.1 +dnssec <domain>, and it returns an RRSIG record, even though DNSSEC hasn’t been enabled yet.
The domain was purchased through Cloudflare Registrar, so I expected DS record setup to be automatic.
Any idea why this is happening?

Enabling DNSSEC sometimes takes significantly longer than the 10 minutes mentioned, I've seen it take a few days. It shouldn't take that long, but sometimes it does.
However, that shouldn't be the cause of your certificate problems. Which validation method did you choose, and what's the domain?
Thanks for your reply, turn out it was "suspended due to an unverified registrant email" 😩 , I was not aware of that until I checked the manage domains page
Glad you got it fixed 😉
Also glad you got it fixed, but looks like we can do better to display this information to you 👍
