    Hi Paolo,

    I checked and you inserted extra character ("6") in your CloudFlare DNS TXT record. Please correct DNS record on CloudFlare side, wait for TTL (5 minutes I believe) to expire and retry validation.

    Please right-click on image below and open it in new tab to see comparison of two values:

    1. In TXT record, you shouldn't leave the quotes in its value.
    2. In CNAME record, you cannot leave it in Proxied mode before passing validation.
