Adding SSL to Domains

  • I did some research in the forum and the FAQs and did read some a lot of stuff that answered most of my questions.

    I know when it comes to SSL you need to have it on the main domain AND on the other domains and not have it in one and not on the other, I have the SSL on my current domain, but how would I go about adding SSL to all my other domains I plan to add?

    Can i use something like zerossl.com for the other domains? or what would be the best way to make it so all of my domains have SSL?

    Thank you!

  • I’m trying to figure out the same thing. I have a lot of subdomains and think I need a wildcard domain but not sure how that works. Can I use any SSL or do I need a special one like digicert.com/wildcard-ssl-certificates/

    Just be sure to change site settings from https:// to https:// And to make sure set your control panel to always redirect to SSL… Mapping settings will remain the same.

    Use letsencrypt for SSL certs. It’s 100% free.

    The problem I was having was actually my hosting company (1and1 ionos) they do not allow free SSL like lets encrypt or zerossl you have to pay for every additional ssl so i just switched to DreamHost which allows you to add free ssl from lets encrypt to all your domains.

    I did install really simple ssl plugin to force https on my site but decided to get rid of it an just used this on my .htaccess file

    RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    and this line as well so i didn’t get mixed content warnings

    Header always set Content-Security-Policy: upgrade-insecure-requests

    Hopefully this helps someone
