Let’s Encrypt Wildcard

    Hi, currently the plugin does not detect Let’s Encrypt Wildcard SSL certs and gives the warning message: “You run a Multisite installation with subdomains, but your site doesn’t have a wildcard certificate. This leads to issues when activating SSL networkwide since subdomains will be forced over SSL as well while they don’t have a valid certificate. Activate SSL per site or install a wildcard certificate to fix this”.

    Is there a way for it to detect these certificates because the notice is not dismissable. It will com back when the admin page is refreshed.

    Hi,

    if you do have a valid wildcard SSL certificate (this can be tested at https://ssllabs.com/ssltest), you can safely ignore this warning. I just checked and the warning should be dismissible. Does the warning return after pressing the X in the top right corner of the message?

    Hi Mark,

    The certificate is valid. All subsites correctly resolve to HTTPS and Really Simple SSL functions correctly on them with the exception of the nag. The warning returns after the X is pressed.

    Thanks,

    Hi Jason,

    There might be some javascript snipped from another plugin active on the page which is causing an error. This error may prevent the nag dismissal from working.

    As a workaround, you can add this in your theme’s functions.php:
    update_site_option("rsssl_wildcard_message_shown", true);

    Then run the site once, and remove this line again. This will dismiss the warning. Let me know if this helps!
