SSL in cPanel: AutoSSL, Free Certificates and HTTPS Redirect

1. cPanel → SSL/TLS Status → Run AutoSSL.
2. Wait a few minutes; domains show a green padlock.
3. Force HTTPS: cPanel → Domains → Force HTTPS Redirect.

If it fails

• DNS must point to the server.
• Remove CAA records that block the issuer.
• Fix mixed content by changing http:// links to https://.

Paid certificates (EV/OV) can be installed under SSL/TLS → Manage.
