Common issues include DNS propagation delays (it can take time for the TXT record to become active globally), incorrect TXT record values entered into Cloudflare, or the Cloudflare proxy (orange cloud) being enabled for the DNS record type used for verification (though usually TXT records are not proxied). Ensuring the TXT record is correctly formatted and allowing sufficient propagation time are key to avoiding these problems.
