class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your website was recently migrated to WPX, <strong>do<\/strong> <strong>not make any changes<\/strong> to the site until DNS propagation is <strong>fully<\/strong> completed. Any updates made during this period may be saved on your <strong>old hosting account<\/strong> and could be lost once propagation finishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DNS propagation usually takes anywhere from a few minutes to <strong>48 hours<\/strong>.&nbsp; During the <a href=\"https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/what-is-dns-propagation-and-why-it-can-take-up-to-48-hours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>propagation process<\/strong><\/a>, some of your visitors will access your website from your old hosting and some from WPX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-ht-blocks-messages wp-block-hb-message wp-block-hb-message--withicon is-style-alert\">If changes are made to the website before the DNS propagation is fully completed, and a re-migration is necessary, this will be considered a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/migration-policy\/\">paid re-migration<\/a><\/strong>. ($98 excl. VAT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please note that since Cloudflare uses a <strong>proxy <\/strong>by default, the actual WPX IP addresses will be masked. Because of this, the online DNS tools won\u2019t show the WPX IPs during propagation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to <strong>track the DNS propagation<\/strong> using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsmydns.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>an online tool<\/strong> <\/a>and see the real WPX IPs, you can temporarily <strong>disable the proxy<\/strong> until propagation is complete. Once confirmed, you can re-enable the proxy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a9ff4f17fecf&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a9ff4f17fecf\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1613\" height=\"333\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy.png 1613w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-1024x211.png 1024w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-768x159.png 768w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-50x10.png 50w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-1536x317.png 1536w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-60x12.png 60w, https:\/\/wpx.net\/kb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/cf-activate-proxy-100x21.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1613px) 100vw, 1613px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have more questions?
