If you've just renewed your SSL certificate, double-check the renewal process. Ensure the certificate was successfully issued and installed correctly on your server. Sometimes, there can be a delay in the certificate becoming fully active. Also, verify that you have correctly configured Cloudflare to use the newly installed certificate. A misconfiguration can also lead to the 526 error.
