Redirect x.srb.codes to x.com/srbcode

Learn how to Create a redirect rule from Cloudflare dashboard.

I wanted to redirect x.srb.codes to x.com/srbcode for my personal website. Here's how I created a redirect rule in Cloudflare.

Steps

1. Create a DNS A Record

First, create a new A record in Cloudflare DNS with the following details:

  • Name: x
  • Type: A
  • Content: 192.0.2.1
  • Proxied: On (Orange cloud icon)

2. Create a Redirect Rule

Navigate to the Cloudflare dashboard and create a new redirect rule:

Redirect Rules in Cloudflare

Configure the rule with these settings:

When incoming requests match...

  • Name: Redirect-X
  • Custom filter expression
    • Field: Hostname
    • Operator: equals
    • Value: x.srb.codes
    • Expression: (http.host eq "x.srb.codes")

Then...

  • Type: URL redirect (static)
  • URL: https://x.com/intent/follow?screen_name=srbcode
  • Status code: 301

Click Save to activate the rule.

The final rule should look like this:
