cPanel and Cloudflare FREE SSL

xaitmixaitmi Member

Hi.

When I try to use CF's free SSL on one of my sites it says.

I just tried going to https://mydomain.com

How do you make CF's free SSL work with cPanel?

Note that I am not using the cf built into cpanel, I'm using my own cf acc

    Right now they don't support free SSL via cloudflare partners, in this case via CPANEL. you will need to sign up at cloudflare and configure your domain via them and enable 'FULL SSL' otherwise it won't work. If you try to contact the support they will go round and round in circles. Speaking with experience.

    Did you try flexible SSL?

    You might not have a cert activated. You can either create one in cPanel or I could get you a free Wildcard if you PM me with a CSR. or, use flexible SSL (but then it's not really encrypted, but might be good for SEO).

  • create self sign cert and use full ssl

  • Are you using pro plan? Or Free?
    Because depends on your plan, you can wait up to 24 hours before their SSL will apply to you!

    Btw, get free ssl from woosign, or startssl, and use full / strict mode in cloudflare. Without different issues.
