Hi -
I’m trying to use a Wordpress plugin to automatically get and renew an SSL certificate from Let’s Encrypt (so I don’t have to keep renewing myself every 30 days). As part of this set up, I need my cPanel login URL (which ends with a :2083).
I’ve tried various options that I can see, but it doesn’t work.
Can anyone help plese?
What plugin would this be?
I think it is just cpanel.epizy.com
It’s this plugin: Free SSL Certificate Plugin, HTTPS Redirect, Renewal Reminder – Auto-Install Free SSL – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org
I tried cpanel.epizy.com (it appends this with :2083) but then doesn’t like it. Any other ideas please?
This might be the case for you, as we technically use VisaPanel, and not cPanel. (They might be the same thing, but I don’t think so.)
If your web hosting control panel is any other than cPanel, the client can’t install SSL certificate automatically. In that case, you can install the issued free SSL manually.
We don’t have cPanel. If there was a way to automatically install an SSL certificate through the control panel, we would have implemented it in our own Free SSL Certificates tool.
So why is the URL cPanel, as someone else suggested above, and everything labelled as cPanel? Are we saying “we call it cPanel, but it’s not really cPanel that everyone else uses”?
That’s annoying, but makes sense.
At present, I keep needing to manually add an SSL certificate every 30 days, when other services will offer this for free with a continually rolling renewal.
That is something iFastNet setup. I don’t think it can be changed.
Basically. And we are not the only people that do this. But I agree, it is messed up.
You should be able to use them, as long is it is a self signed cert, and can be added threw the control panel.
You can used a self-signed certificate and CloudFlare. This was you only need to renew every 10 years.
Or you can upgrade to IFastNet.
“cpanel.*” doesn’t necessary mean it’s cPanel from cPanel Inc. “cpanel” is just an abbreviation of control panel, imagine how long the URL will be if it was controlpanel.freecluster.eu or controlpanel.epizy.com.
I don’t see things labeled as cPanel on InfinityFree, even the top left of the control panel shows the Vista Panel logo
Hope this helped
It’s cpanel, which is short for Control Panel. I would have gone for cp or something else instead to avoid confusion, but that’s not my call.
“We”, as in InfinityFree, try calling it “Control Panel” everywhere to avoid the confusion. iFastNet has a different approach.
