Why does my site say "not secure" even with SSL installed? Print

  • 0

An installed SSL doesn't always mean the padlock shows. Common causes include:

  • HTTPS isn't forced — visitors still land on the http:// version. Enable Force HTTPS in cPanel > Domains.
  • Mixed content — some images or scripts load over http://. Update those links to https://.
  • Wrong or expired certificate — check SSL/TLS Status and run AutoSSL.
  • Cache — your browser or a CDN may serve the old insecure page; clear caches and retry in a private window.
  • DNS not pointing here — if your domain uses an external proxy or old nameservers, the certificate may not apply.

If it still shows insecure after these checks, open a ticket with the URL so we can investigate.
