Setting up Custom SSL (HTTPS) with Vanilla Cloud
All Vanilla Cloud communities are automatically protected by SSL from the moment they are created.
We have partnered with Cloudflare to offer simple SSL certificate issuing services to our all of our customers. This means that we’re able to automatically issue SSL certificates for your community on your behalf once you set up a custom domain
Important Notes
- Since your site is being served through SSL, you will encounter problems if you are externally linking to non-SSL resources such as javascript, css, or images. It will be important to keep this in mind if you are doing you own custom theming, adding pockets to your site or have other customizations enabled.
- If you are using SSO, make sure your authentication url is available over SSL or else your SSO connection will fail.
