I have a domain. And I changed that nameservers to connect with InfinityFree hosting.

Now I wanted to get a SSL certificate on my site for long time (at least 1year). All of InfinityFree SSL certificate giver valid for 90days.

If I wanted to add SSL Certificate with cloudflare they asking to change the all of nameservers including InfinityFree nameservers. If I do that does the connection between my domain and InfinityFree hosting will be disconnected?

When I upload certificate generated by cloudflare it’s showing me this error message.

I don’t think I’ve an previous SSL Certificates on previous tries. I’ve tried before with another hosting provider. But they don’t had the SSL Certification create manually. But SSL Checker showing me this.

The Cloudflare Origin Certificates cannot be used on our hosting. But you can use a self signed certificate and configure Cloudflare to use “Full” SSL mode instead. It’s a little bit less secure, but the self signed certificates are valid for a very long time, so it’s basically set up and forget.

How to setup Full SSL with Cloudflare

By default, Cloudflare uses a system called “Flexible SSL”. In this system, Cloudflare secures the connection between your visitors and Cloudflare, but not the connection between Cloudflare and your website. Not only is this less secure, some websites (notably WordPress) have trouble detecting whether HTTPS is in use, causing all sorts of issues.

SSL certificates never get the status “active”. The filters at the top show all available states. But “issued” is pretty much the closest thing you can get: it means the certificate has been created, can be used and is not revoked or expired. The SSL certificate status only shows the status of the SSL certificate itself, not the website you created it for.

You can view the certificate currently active on your website by clicking on the certificate. If you’re using Cloudflare, it will likely show the certificate from Cloudflare. When the certificate is Issued, you can also install it on your account from there.
