Installing your own (paid) SSL certificate

If you bought an SSL from a third-party CA (Sectigo, DigiCert, GoDaddy) or have a corporate wildcard — you can install it in cPanel manually.

\n

What you need from the SSL provider

\n

1. Certificate (.crt) — the main file
2. Private key (.key) — was generated when creating the CSR
3. CA Bundle (intermediate.crt) — the issuing CA’s chain

\n

Installing in cPanel

\n

1. cPanel → Security → SSL/TLS
2. Under Certificates (CRT) pick Generate, view, upload, or delete SSL certificates
3. At the bottom find Upload a New Certificate
4. Open the .crt in a text editor, copy everything and paste into the field
5. Optionally add a description
6. Click Save Certificate

\n

Binding to the domain

\n

1. In Install and Manage SSL for your site (HTTPS)
2. Pick the domain
3. Click Browse Certificates, select the uploaded one
4. Fill Private Key with the .key contents
5. Fill Certificate Authority Bundle with the CA bundle contents
6. Click Install Certificate

\n

If you only have a PFX/PKCS12 file (e.g. from GoDaddy) — convert to crt+key via openssl or ask Navju Cloud support.
