Enabling HTTP/2 support (Ubuntu 16.04.04/LAMP)

April 4, 2018 180 views
Apache Let's Encrypt Server Optimization WordPress Ubuntu 16.04

Hi there!

I'd like to enable the HTTP/2 protocol for my WordPress based website, on a LAMP stack. I see there's a tutorial for NGINX here in DO's tutorials, but can't get a comprehensive one for Apache. Browsing around, I understand there's a solution installing Apache through Ondrej Launchpad PPA, but I'm not sure whether this is fine on a production server.

Any comment, advice or solution very much welcomed! ; )

My best,

Dimitri

The instructions here will help you with that.

Once you have an SSL installed you will need to update the WordPress URL

    Thanks Jason, but I'm wondering if we're not confusing HTTP/2 and HTTPS here... Although it's strongly recommended to run the HTTP/2 protocol with an SSL certificate, I'm not quite sure installing Certbot (already did time ago through this tutorial) automatically triggers that protocol. Am I wrong?
