I’m setting up a subdomain for my Oneseco Media project and want to make sure I do this correctly in Cloudflare. Here are the details: Requirements: • Subdomain: (e.g., blog.oneseco.com) • Domain: oneseco.com (managed via Cloudflare) • Server: MacBook Pro running local development environment • Goal: Route the subdomain to a specific server or service Steps I’ve Taken: 1. Logged into Cloudflare dashboard. 2. Selected the oneseco.com domain. 3. Added a DNS record (Type A or CNAME). 4. Set up a test server to respond to the subdomain. Challenges: • Choosing between A and CNAME records. • Configuring SSL settings for the subdomain. • Making sure the server correctly handles the subdomain requests. Questions: • What is the best practice for choosing between A and CNAME records? • How should I configure my local server to handle the subdomain traffic? • Are there any common pitfalls I should avoid?
