How to Change Cloudflare DNS Records
Step 1: Log in to your Cloudflare Control Panel and open the DNS Settings by clicking the DNS tab at the top of the Cloudflare Dashboard.
Step 2: Your DNS Management area for the domain will open and a list of your DNS records will be displayed. Let’s use the example below as a reference:
You will want to look under the Type Column for the A Record for your website, the domain name for which will appear in the Name Column.
Once you find this record, click Edit (located on the right side).
After clicking Edit, the record will expand and you will be given the option to enter the new Server IP Address of the server on which your account resides at ChemiCloud.
After entering the new IP address, be sure to click Save to save the update.
