Hi,

When you gave Domain to CloudFlare (entered right NS records in domain settings) you need to setup A record with Droplet IP in CloudFlare site settings.

Go to CloudFlare, select your domain, find DNS settings and add A record with name * and Droplet IP for value.

This should be it, maybe you will have to wait few minutes or even more for DNS to refresh
