[FM Discuss] Let's Encrypt on https://flossmanuals.net

[Mick Chesterman]

Hi Helen,


I just followed this method, with root access on the server and an apache set up it was pretty easy.

if "working" means that we don't get an insecure connection notification, then yes it worked for me :) (i have HTTPS Everywhere)


would be interested to hear how you did it, mick, as i have a couple of sites where i maybe need this (on the log-in fields)

Awesome work Mick!


But when I went to http://en.flossmanuals.net/ they didnt work, and defaulted to unsecure http.

also when I tried en.flossmanuals.net. However when I added https it worked.

Same thing with flossmanuals.net.


I think you need some kind for 'force https', whether that's a server tool or a rewrite in .htaccess


Cheers, martin

Hi there,

I've just set up Let's Encrypt SSL Certs on flossmanuals.net and
en.flossmanuals.net.

Can anyone verify that they work for them?

I'm amazed how easy it was! (and free) This is a great project!

Thanks
Mick
