I have a server with a discourse instance.

It has a domain name1.  
While I want to change it to name2.

I found that:

1. If both “name1” and “name2” are simply set by godaddy DNS address, with the same ip address, if you still type “name1”, it will automaticly jump to “name2”.

2. But, if I set domain by cloudflare while the name2 ip address was hided by cloudflare. In this case, “name1” will not jump to “name2” anymore.

While can we make some modification, that we can still have the first feature? Typing “name1” still automatically jump to “name2”?
