HELP GUIDE
Get https working (SSL)
Every domain on your account gets a free SSL certificate. The server issues it once your domain points to us, usually within a few hours of the nameserver change. It renews by itself.
Check that it is there
- Log in to cPanel and open SSL/TLS Status.
- Look for your domain in the list. A green lock means it has a certificate.
- No lock? Make sure your domain points to us, then click Run AutoSSL and wait a few minutes.
Make WordPress use it
- In WordPress, open Settings, General.
- Change both addresses to start with https:// instead of http://.
- Save. WordPress logs you out. Log in again at the https address.
If the browser still shows “not secure” on some pages, those pages load an image or file over http. Edit the link to start with https.
No certificate 24 hours after your domain points to us, or no Run AutoSSL button? Email [email protected] with the domain name.
