Redirecting www to domain apex
Learn how to redirect a www
subdomain to your apex domain (example.com
).
This setup assumes that you already have a custom domain attached to your Pages project.
Setup
To redirect your www
subdomain to your domain apex:
- Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard and select your account.
- Go to Bulk Redirects.
- Create a bulk redirect list modeled after the following (but replacing the values as appropriate):
Source URL | Target URL | Status | Parameters |
---|---|---|---|
www.example.com | https://example.com | 301 |
|
- Create a bulk redirect rule using the list you just created.
- Go to DNS.
- Create a DNS record for the
www
subdomain using the following values:
Type | Name | IPv4 address | Proxy status |
---|---|---|---|
A | www | 192.0.2.1 | Proxied |
It may take a moment for this DNS change to propagate, but once complete, you can run the following command in your terminal.
$ curl --head -i https://www.example.com/
Then, inspect the output to verify that the location
header and status code are being set as configured.
