In this article, we\u2019ll guide you through adding A records to your Cloudflare account\u2014quickly and easily, in just a few steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At WPX, you can choose between two types of A records<\/strong>, depending on your setup:
the Server IP Address<\/strong>, or the XDN IP Addresses<\/strong> if you want to use WPX XDN<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, you\u2019ll find step-by-step instructions for both options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1. Log in to your WPX account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Begin by logging into your WPX account. You can do this by visiting the WPX login page<\/a>.\u200b<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2. Go to Control Panel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once logged in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Locate your hosting plan in the WPX client area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Click the Control Panel<\/strong> button next to the plan you wish to manage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    If you have more than five hosting plans of the same type (WordPress, Agency or WooCommerce), not all may appear on the homepage. Use the WordPress Hosting<\/strong>, Agency Hosting<\/strong> or WooCommerce Hosting<\/strong> tab in the left-hand menu to find your service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 3. Locating the IP addresses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You must navigate to the Plan details<\/strong> section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There you can locate your service details – Server IP<\/strong>, XDN IPs <\/strong>and Nameservers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    The IP addresses shown on the screenshots and used in these guidelines may differ depending on your hosting server. Please, make sure to use the IPs from your<\/strong> account!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 4. Log in to Cloudflare<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Log in to your Cloudflare account here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Once logged in, click the three dots<\/strong> next to your website and select Configure DNS<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      You\u2019ll be redirected to the DNS Records<\/strong> section, where you\u2019ll find Cloudflare\u2019s DNS editor. From there, you can easily add or edit your DNS records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Add DNS records<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      To create a new record, simply click Add record<\/strong>. From there, you can choose the record type (A, CNAME, TXT, MX, etc.) and fill in the required fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Edit DNS records<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      To edit an existing record, just click the Edit<\/strong> button next to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Adding WPX A Records<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Before you proceed, you\u2019ll need to decide whether or not you\u2019d like to use WPX XDN<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The IP addresses listed are examples.
      The<\/strong> correct IPs for your specific WPX hosting account may be different.<\/strong>
      Please check your WPX control panel or contact our support team to confirm the exact IP addresses you should use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Option 1: Without WPX XDN (using the Server IP)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
