Edit: tried again after contacting support (I don’t know if they did something) and now it works. I’m sorry I can’t explain what changed, maybe some DNS propagation. Original message follows.

Hi, I’ve tried to publish a site with a custom domain but I’m stuck with “DNS record is not yet set.” message.

What I’ve done so far:

– Domain added to Cloudflare Free Plan from Porkbun.

– CNAME pointing to “[sites.bootstrapstudio.io](http://sites.bootstrapstudio.io)” added as ONLY DNS record.

– DNSSEC & Multi-signer DNSSEC disabled on Cloudlare.

– SSL/TLS encryption set to Flexible on Cloudflare.

– Always Use HTTPS Enabled/Disabled (same result).

– Checked DNS propagation on [https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/francislaocosta.com](https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/francislaocosta.com). All pointing to Cloudflare.

– Waited for 4 hours +.

Result:

I’ve tried removing “[francislacosta.com](http://francislacosta.com)” from Cloudflare and adding CNAME ALIAS record to Porkbun. It works, but browser complains about SSL Cert not correct, so back to Cloudflare.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Happy to hear you’ve got it resolved. We haven’t done anything. Most likely DNS caching issues.
