This article describes how to do that. If you would rather watch a video, scroll down to the bottom of this article. Installing an SSL certificate The first step to install an SSL certificate is of course to get the SSL certificate. You will need to get your SSL certificate from a certificate vendor of your choice.

There are multiple ways to do that. Let’s compare some commonly used ways. Using script configuration Some scripts (including Wordpress) have a setting which allows you to set your website URL. By changing this URL from [http://example.com](http://example.com) to [https://example.com](https://example.com), the script will probably redirect visitors to the https version of your site.

I already did it, it didn’t work with scripts either I have added in my htaccess file that I have in my forum add this RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteCond %{HTTP:CF-Visitor} !{“scheme”:“https”} RewriteRule (.\*) https://%{HTTP\_HOST}%{REQUEST\_URI} [L,R=301 ![](https://forum-cdn.infinityfree.net/original/3X/b/0/b0176e779265760ef2a4bc40036bdd6cb463624b.png) ---

You might also need to remove the duplicate `RewriteEngine On` line, else the rules after the ones XenForo has might not be applied. Also, a question, are you paying for your XenForo installation? Because hosting pirated software is illegal and not allowed on free hosting. You might also spend your money on hosting that goes with it instead of going the free way for software you really like, or use free alternatives such as Flarum or phpBB instead. ---

There are two `RewriteEngine On` lines, one at line 10 and another one at line 26 (I couldn’t see the line numbers as you’re using the default Notepad, so I had to count them by hand with the screenshot you sent); this is what I meant with duplicate, so you’ll have to remove the second one. I also had to search something on Google and only forcing HTTPS through the `.htaccess` file is supposed to work; then I don’t know if there are options on your administration panel to change the URL to HTTPS or something else… ---

This is the reason for your SSL problem: ![image](https://forum-cdn.infinityfree.net/original/3X/d/d/dda6ddb0c9d3442c8ea636c4ec65f89d0eaf9db7.png) You have obtained a Google Trust SSL certificate, but it’s not installed yet. Simply click the Install button to fix that. ---
