Struggles w/ Page Rules

I have no clue why I can never get these darn page rules working but I am just trying to get my domain to redirect to another link. My current setup is trying to redirect from discord.example.com to discord.gg and I've gotten this working before so I know it's possible but I have know clue why it's hit or miss for me sometimes. I've attached an image of my setup, and I do have two A records (dns) only. I also added a 100:: AAAA record hoping that might fix it, but no dice...

You've blurred out/not disclosed enough information that it's hard to say what's wrong. If it's a basic rule like discord.example.com/* to https://discord.gg/gfggfhg then it should work. What's the exact error you get? If it's Site not found / NXDomain, it's DNS. If it's a 522/Cloudflare branded page, most likely your rule isn't being matched

I've also purged my cache and tried a different device

You didn't blur that one, not sure if on purpose You're missing a DNS Record to get this to work. Traffic needs to reach Cloudflare for the redirect to work. Did you create a DNS record like AAAA discord 100:: Proxied? It looks like you may have created one for your root domain (@) but not for the discord subdomain

The fact that you were able to gather such information from so little information is incredibly impressive and also, changing my AAAA record to discord worked. Thank you so so much for your time! I deeply appreciate it :)
