only https://www.tipdeal.nl works but https://randomsubdomain.tipdeal.nl does not work, what am I doing wrong? My domainname is configured at cloudflare the cname is set to "dns only* but it seems I am doing something wrong

Hi and welcome to the Vercel Community, @hkuperus!

Could you share your full DNS configuration? :slight_smile:

Hey @hkuperus,

Did you add that subdomain to a project? If not, that would explain why it isn't working. [The CNAME record](https://dnschecker.org/#CNAME/randomsubdomain.tipdeal.nl) goes to `cname.vercel-dns.com.`, but Vercel's routing system doesn't know what project should be associated with that request.

If all subdomains for [tipdeal.nl](https://www.tipdeal.nl/) should go to the same project, you have a couple of additional configuration options.
