My website shows “Not secure”

The browser warns when the certificate is missing, has expired or doesn’t cover the address. It also warns when the page loads content over http. Start with the cause at the top.

Applies to websites on hosting at Inleed Updated 6 Nov 2026
Right guide?

Is your website on Wix, Shopify or similar? Connect your domain to a website on another service

Common causes

1The certificate has expired, even though it should have renewed

Check

Did the renewal fail, for example because the domain or www no longer points here?

What to do

Open Provisioning history under SSL/TLS Certificates in DirectAdmin. It shows what went wrong.

The SSL certificate can’t be created or renewed
2It works on the domain but not on www, or the other way round

Check

Is the certificate missing for one of the names? www usually points somewhere else.

What to do

Point @ and www to your hosting’s IP address. The certificate is then created automatically.

Connect a domain to your hosting
3It says Not secure even though the certificate is valid

Check

Does the page load images, fonts or scripts over http, or do visitors end up on http?

What to do

Turn on Force SSL with https redirect for the domain in DirectAdmin, and change http:// to https:// in the website’s settings.

Turn on an SSL certificate for your website
4The browser shows a certificate for a server name instead of your domain

Check

Does the domain lack its own certificate, or does it point to the wrong server?

What to do

Follow the troubleshooting for certificates that can’t be created.

The SSL certificate can’t be created or renewed
5The domain points to another service, such as Cloudflare or Vercel

Check

Does the domain point to an external service? The certificate is then created there, not at Inleed.

What to do

Fix the certificate at that service.
