Re: Install a free SSL certificate

I've never tried adding subdomains to my SSL and I believe most SSL CA vendors charge for that feature. Free SSL certificates only last 60 to 90 days and since I travel a lot that does not work very well for me. If you forget to renew a certificate, and it expires, users cannot connect to your websi...

Re: Install a free SSL certificate

Yes your summary is correct. Keep in mind if you create a new website you won’t need to modify .htaccess because the virtual host settings can connect using HTTPS if selected. It is best to check with the CA vendor when using subdomains as their services vary. For example Let’s Encrypt supports sub ...

Re: Install a free SSL certificate

Make sure the correct SSL certificate is attached to process-guru.net and the WordPress URL is configured for https. Add the following code at the beginning of your .htaccess file for process-guru.net. Then test if this forces a https connection when you load your site. RewriteEngine On RewriteCond ...

Re: Install a free SSL certificate

I just tried process-guru.net and it is still using the barrettnas2.synology.me certificate. Go back to DSM security and attach the correct certificate to the process-guru.net website. Once you are using the correct certificate, flush your browser cache and any cookies for that website. If you still...

Re: Install a free SSL certificate

Go to web station and select virtual host then select the website and edit. Under HTTPS settings, check both boxes for HSTS and HTTP/2 then select OK. Alternately, you can manually force an https connection using .htaccess . Sorry I missed the Jan 15 question. The default certificate is the certific...

TNG New Account Registration Notice

Many users expect immediate access when registering on a website. If your TNG website uses a manual approval process, add this mod to let registrants know when they register. If auto-approval is enabled, the message is not shown. Sometimes registrants may not pay attention to the notice so, in addit...

Re: Installing WordPress from WordPress.org

That’s great, glad to hear you solved the problem. One thing I’ve noticed is if you drag files from a zip, or copy files, to the NAS using windows, the folders or files may not inherit web folder permissions. However if you extract the zip files using File Station, permissions are inherited automati...

Re: Installing WordPress from WordPress.org

If you're getting an error, what is the error code?

In the mean time, the Synology version updates automatically but the WordPress download version does not. To allow automatic updates add the code below before the last php closing tag ?> in wp-config.php.

Code: Select all

define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
