    Very helpful. That's exactly what I needed. Works great. I just followed steps after my first year certificate expired I used your video to uninstall and then install new one. I can not thank you enough for this helpful tutorial. Thank You.

    Great, just used on 7 different sites with no issues. For anyone else doing multi-sites, note that the script installation (first terminal command) is only run once. Not repeated for each site. But last command (*For generating SSL certificate*) needs to be run again for each individual site, inputting the correct URL and file directory for that site.

      Curious: Have you ran into any issues renewing the certificates ?

    • @delos2279
      @delos2279 9 місяців тому

      @@moderneuc6547 I think Namecheap disables the auto-renew cron job or at least I couldn't get it to work on my shared hosting plan. So to renew I just manually rerun the cert creation for each site though the console and paste the new certificates again into the SSL page.
      I have the console command for each site saved in a text file and the links to each site's .cer and .key file location to save time. So the whole process is just lot of copy pasting and takes maybe 10 minutes of copy pasting every 3 months to renew 7 sites.

    So according to the flow of actions, the cronjob does generate a new SSL certificate and key, but you must handle SSL installation yourself anyway. Is there a way to actually install the SSL for the domain using SSH?

      The Cron job creates a new certificate file at regular intervals. You have to copy and paste that and the old key file in cPanel, when you want to renew.
