Question
I can't figure out how to make https/ssl certificates work
Hi, so I used the wordpress one click install, managed to move my files and database to the droplet, but can’t figure out how to add my ssl certificate and make the website work on https, i’m getting This site can’t be reached. mydomain.com refused to connect.
Any thoughts? I have my own ssl certificate from 1&1 and since it’s paid would like to use that one instead of the free let’s encrypt.

You need to upload the SSL files .crt, .key (if CSR generated outside of the server) and CA bundle to the droplet. Then add the paths of those files in the Apache vhost config and restart the Apache once.
