Redirect settings www in Cloudflare not working

Developer help
1

Hi,
I’m doing the setup for the redirect of our custom domain.
We redirected livethelife.tv to our Ghost domain, which is working

The www is not working though. I followed the instructions for Cloudflare.
Do we need to do both setups as in the documentation:
create an A record for www and point it to 8.8.8.8
+
Add a page rule for www.livethelife.tv/* and set a 301 to https://livethelife.tv/$1 ?
And why add the $1 ?

What if we also want to redirect the media subdomain to our Ghost site, I guess this is also a 301 redirect the same as for www ? Tried that but it’s not working either

Thanks

You can set the A record of the www subdomain to 192.0.2.1 so it does not get sent to ghost directly.

Then your page rule looks fine, so should work

The $1 is a placeholder for the * - It will pass on whatever uri from the oringal request to the new url
