Click on the “Obtain New SSL Certificate” button and select the domain for which you generated the CSR. CWP7 will automatically validate the domain and request the SSL certificate from Let’s Encrypt.
Step 4: Installing the SSL Certificate
Once you have obtained the SSL certificate, it’s time to install it on your domain. In the SSL Management interface, navigate to the “Installed SSL Certificates” tab.
Click on the “Install” button next to the certificate you wish to install. CWP7 will automatically install the certificate, along with the necessary CA Bundle. This step ensures that your website is accessible via HTTPS and displays the green padlock symbol.
