Setting Up Domain with Cloudflare for use with Mintbird
I registered this domain with namecheap.com but added the domain to my free cloudflare account and updated the nameservers on the domain signsofautism.org to point to the nameservers cloudflare.com gave me.
Now I can manage all the domain records inside CloudFlare for the domain signsofautism.org
1. Click on Module Settings on the left hand menu, if you don't see it you may need to zoom out in chrome it would be pressing the ctrl & the - sign (next to the zero)
2. Click on + Add Domain
3. Type your domain name in the Domain name field in my case it's "SignsofAutism"
4. Type "signsofautism.org" no need to type the www or https://
5. If you don't have any pages setup inside Mintbird at this time, then Type "google.com" for the redirect URL because you won't be able to select a page under main page. If you do have a page created, you can select Main Page and a dropdown will appear for you to select your page.
You will come back to this in a later step.
6. Copy text titled "cname.poplinks.io You will use this to create your cname record in cloudflare.com for your domain name to get it to direct to your mintbird account
7. Click on your domain name in my example it's signsofautism.org
8. Click on DNS on the left hand side
9. If you don't have an existing website and have an existing A record
Click on the box to the left.
The A record would have the value of your domain name and it should be deleted because if you don't you will not be able to add the cname record needed for mintbird
10. Click on Delete 1 record button
11. Type "DELETE" in the box that appeared
12. Click on Red Delete Button
13. If you have a cname record with a www name in - click on edit for that record
14. Type "cname.poplinks.io" in the target field
15. Click on Save
16. Click on Add record
17. Click on dropdown trigger
18. Click on CNAME
19. Type the name of your domain without the www or https:// just the domain in my example it would be "signsofautism.org"
20. Paste the "cname.poplinks.io" value into the target
21. Uncheck Proxy status
22. Click on Save
23. Click on Add Domain To Bank
24. Click on Select domain in the Domains section of Global Settings under Module Settings
You should see your domain there now. This means you can select it for user with pages.
25. Click on Main Pages to set the URL for a page using your newly added domain
26. Click on Sales Pages or any page really
27. Click on the three dots for the page you want to set the URL for
28. Click on Setup Url's
29. Select Personal
30. Click on the dropdown to see your domains
31. Click on signsofautism.org or your domain name
32. Click on Save Links
You can set the page name after the domain by replacing the text where the arrow is pointing.
33. Click on dropdown trigger
34. Click on Go to Link
35. You will now see your page!
Congratulations you are done. The text on the page I setup was just for testing
