I'm hosting an WordPress on railway, but since railway doesn't have an static inbound ip, how do I set up CDN for the website?

#

i think it goes off what was added first, but in 2024 why do you need www lol

pliant jay Aug 10, 2024, 3:10 AM

#

hum, good point, guess I can just ditch www

abstract warren Aug 10, 2024, 3:10 AM

#

for sure

#

to be sure, domain -> CDN cname -> railway cname?
