      ECOM | Cloudflare Proxy Setup Guide

      Welcome to our Cloudflare Proxy onboarding guide. This step-by-step process will ensure your site is properly configured to use Cloudflare's proxy service, enhancing security and performance.

       

      Important Note: Transitioning to the CF Workers Proxy Service

      This guide applies to both new users and existing users transitioning from our old proxy:

      1. New Users:
        • If your content site is currently using the root domain, you can directly follow the setup steps below without additional adjustments.
      2. Existing Users on the Old Proxy:
        • If your content site is currently using a subdomain, you will need to migrate it to the root domain before proceeding.
        • Adjust the DNS settings according to your platform (e.g., WordPress or your CDN).
        • This migration requires scheduling to avoid any potential downtime. Please coordinate with your team to plan this transition carefully.
        • Once the domain transition is complete, follow the steps outlined below to set up the new Cloudflare proxy.
