What do you mean port forwarding won't work properly? Like the coder port-forward command?

Lets say Cloudflare proxy is turned on for *.work.devtye.xyz If I was to port forwards for the web ui for example 400--development--vscode.work.devtye.xyz That URL would not work. Is there a way I can hide origin IP

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. By "hide the origin IP" do you mean the IP of the requester?

When Cloudflare proxy is turned on. If you a DNS check of the domain that is connected to the ip. The domain will only show the 2 cloudflare nameserver ip.(you already know this bit) The IP I want to hide is where I have installed coder. Since If my server gets ddosed my account swill get termed. I am unable to do this because If i wanted to port forward an instance of my coder for e.g. code server, it won't work.

Cloudflare supports proxying wildcard domains for free though, so I'm a bit confused: https://blog.cloudflare.com/wildcard-proxy-for-everyone/
