SaturdayMP Show 110: Migrate Blog from WordPress to Hugo Static Site on Cloudflare (Part 6)

The final episode of the series. I get the Noise from the Basement (NFTB) DNS working by setting nameservers to Cloudflare, but keeping EasyDNS as my registrar. As I write this, everything is working, including my email. I’ll have to check if this is true in 24 hours.

Do you have thoughts about hosting static sites on Cloudflare and/or using Hugo? Any improvements I should make? Let me know.

SaturdayMP Show 109: Migrate Blog from WordPress to Hugo Static Site on Cloudflare (Part 5)

This episode is a continuation of episode 108 recorded later that day but broken up into two parts. I try to point the nftb subdomain to my Cloudflare Worker but, spoiler alert, fail. Takes me a while to figure out that Cloudflare Workers don’t support custom domains outside of Cloudflare zones.

In this episode I add fix a couple minor issues with the ported blog and then try to point the DNS records at the new blog. Spoiler: updating the DNS records fails, but I don’t figure out why in this video. Future me knows why, and it’s already recorded for part 5.
