LOVE WP ENCRYPTION SSL PLUGIN?

If you find this plugin useful, please leave a positive review. Your reviews are our biggest motivation for further development of plugin.

Disclaimer

WP Encryption uses SSLLabs API for SSL scan & detection. By using the plugin, you agree to terms & conditions of SSLLabs

By enabling the Vulnerability Scan feature, you agree to terms & conditions of WPVulnerability Database API. The information provided by the information database comes from different sources that have been reviewed by third parties. There is no liability of any kind for the information.

Security is an important subject regarding SSL/TLS certificates, of course. It is obvious that your private key, stored on your web server, should never be accessible from the web. When the plugin created the keys directory for the first time, it will store a .htaccess file in this directory, denying all visitors. Always make sure yourself your keys aren’t accessible from the web! We are in no way responsible if your private keys go public. If this does happen, the easiest solution is to check folder permissions on your server and make sure public access is forbidden for root folders. Next, create a new certificate.

Întrebări frecvente

Does installing the plugin will instantly turn my site https?

Installing SSL certificate is a server side process and not as straight forward as installing a ready widget and using it instantly. You will have to follow some simple steps to install SSL for your WordPress site. Our plugin acts like a tool to generate and install SSL for your WordPress site. On FREE version of plugin – You should manually go through the SSL certificate installation process following the simple video tutorial. Whereas, the SSL certificates are easily generated by our plugin by running a simple SSL generation form.

How to temporarily disable HTTPS redirect

By adding below line of code to your wp-config.php file, All SSL enforcements like HSTS, Upgrade insecure requests, redirect to HTTPS, mixed content fixer will be disabled. Please check your .htaccess file for any other HTTPS enforcement related codes and remove it.

define(„WPLE_DISABLE_HTTPS”);

I already have SSL certificate installed, how to activate HTTPS?

If you already have SSL certificate installed, You can use WP Encryption plugin purely for HTTPS redirection & SSL enforcing purpose. All you need to do is enable „Force HTTPS” feature in this plugin.

Secure webmail & email server with an SSL/TLS Certificate

Starting from WP Encryption v5.4.8, you can now secure your webmail & incoming/outgoing email server following this guide

How to install SSL for both www & non-www version of my domain?

First of all, Please make sure you can access your site with and without www. Otherwise you will be not able to complete domain verification for both www & non-www together. If both are accessible, You will see „Generate SSL for both www & non-www” option on SSL install form. Otherwise, this option will be hidden.

Unable to check „Generate SSL for both www & non-www domain”?

Please make sure you can access your site with and without www. Otherwise you will be not able to complete domain verification for both www & non-www together. You can also force enable this checkbox by appending includewww=1 to page url i.e., /wp-admin/admin.php?page=wp_encryption&includewww=1

Images/Fonts not loading on HTTPS site after SSL certificate installation – Insecure Content / Mixed Content issue?

Images on your site might be loading over http:// protocol, please enable „Force HTTPS via WordPress” feature of WP Encryption. If you have Elementor page builder installed, please go to Elementor > Tools > Replace URL and replace your http:// site url with https://. Make sure you have SSL certificates installed and browser padlock shows certificate as valid before forcing these https measures. If you have too many mixed content errors because of http:// resources loaded in your css, js or external links, We recommend using „Really Simple SSL” plugin along with WP Encryption.

How do I renew SSL certificate

You can click on STEP 1 in progress bar or Renew SSL button (which will be enabled during last 30 days of SSL expiry date) and follow the same initial process of SSL certificate generation to renew the certificates.

Do you support Wildcard SSL?

Wildcard SSL support is included with PRO version

Please follow the revert back instructions given in support thread – Forced SSL via Htaccess and support thread – Forced SSL via WordPress accordingly.

I am getting some errors during SSL installation

Feel free to open a ticket in this plugin support form and we will try our best to resolve your issue.

Should I configure anything for auto renewal of SSL certificates to work after upgrading to PRO version?

You don’t need to configure anything. Once after you upgrade to PRO version and activate PRO plugin on your site, the auto renewal of SSL certificates will start working in background according to 60 days schedule i.e., 30 days prior to SSL certificate expiry date.

Site with Elementor is showing insecure https padlock even if SSL certificate is installed

If your site built with Elementor is showing insecure https padlock even if SSL certificate is properly installed & valid, it could be due to insecure http:// assets being loaded in page builder blocks like image block. Please go to Elementor > Tools > Replace URL and replace http://yoursite.com with https://yoursite.com

This plugin saved my website! I had another "top rated" plugin for awhile but it just stopped working. Strange error codes with no explanation or help files left me no choice but to hunt for a new SSL plugin. This plugin worked fast and flawlessly. My website was back to normal within 15 minutes. Highly recommend for the novice website owner!

SSL is a pain in the butt to install anyway, but this makes it as easy as it can be--and for free! This helped out a client who was in a pinch, so we're both appreciative!
