Understanding the Migration Issues
Webflow Infrastructure Update
Webflow is upgrading their infrastructure to maximize site performance. All domains must be updated by November 3, 2025. The update requires changing CNAME records from cdn.webflow.com, which can cause conflicts with existing Cloudflare proxy configurations.
CNAME Cross-User Banned Error
The 1014 error occurs when Cloudflare detects a CNAME pointing to another Cloudflare account. This happens when your domain uses Cloudflare's proxy (orange cloud) while pointing to Webflow's new infrastructure. The solution requires careful DNS reconfiguration to avoid downtime.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CNAME Cross-User Banned error?
This error occurs when Cloudflare's proxy settings conflict with Webflow's new CDN infrastructure. It typically affects sites using Cloudflare as a reverse proxy for their Webflow subdomain.
Will my site experience downtime during migration?
With proper configuration, your site can migrate with zero downtime. Our experts ensure DNS records are configured correctly before making any changes that could affect availability.
What happens if I don't migrate by November 3?
Webflow will automatically update domains after the deadline, which may cause temporary disruption for sites with complex DNS setups, especially those using Cloudflare proxies.
