Using SSL (HTTPS) with your forum

If your forum is using the standard http://USERNAME.websitetoolbox.com domain name, you can use SSL with your forum by changing the http:// in the URL with https://. Your forum URL would be https://USERNAME.websitetoolbox.com. (Where USERNAME is your Website Toolbox username.) There is no additional cost for using SSL in this case.

If you have purchased a managed domain or you are using a subdomain on your existing domain name, your forum can be configured to use SSL encryption over HTTPS by purchasing an SSL certificate for $99/year. Please contact customer support if you are interested in this option.

Please note that it may take 7 to 10 business days to setup your SSL service.


If you still need assistance, please contact customer support. Home
