I'm having troubles to change the default Adfoc.us to my cloudflare one, any help on how to do it?

    What issues are you having?

    I followed the steps but nothing seems to happen and i can't figure out what I'm doing wrong

    I setted a Cname pointed to "windsof.adfoc.us" default to TTL, I tried putting the domain here "https://adfoc.us/tools/custom-domain" bot nothing happened

    That's not the correct way to configure. Please read the instructions:

    After setting a custom domain below, set a CNAME record for this domain in your DNS settings pointed to mydomain.adfoc.us with default TTL.

    So you need to set name to "windof" as the name, target as mydomain.adfoc.us (this is literal, do not replace "mydomain") and you then would access windof.<yourdomainhere>

    So to my understanding if I set a Cname

    Picture

    • name = supportus (that resolves supportus.windsof.net)
    • target = mydomain.adfoc.us

    Picture

    I should be able to put on adfocus page
    supportus.windsof.net

    Well at this point I think I'm missing something in cloudflare administration panel because this does not work at all
    (I truly think I did something wrong on that side, thanks for the help)

    Correct that's how it works. You would then be able to click links that have that subdomain.

    If you don't mind, please open up a support ticket so we can check your specific account for issues with the DNS.
