Hi, I moved from Italy to Australia and started working again after 4 years of rest. My problem is that I have just delivered a site and once it goes online it tells me that it is not a secure website. How can I go about removing this?

Thanks so much for help

If you want to have a secure website, you first need an SSL certificate that is activated by your web host. It may be chargeable, but that depends on the web host. You need such a certificate for every website. If the web host has the option, you should set the option Force SSL there. If this does not exist, you should do this in the .htaccess file. You will need this for every project. You generate the .htaccess file with, for example, notepad.exe and enter the following lines there:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond % {HTTPS}! = On
RewriteRule ^ https: //% {HTTP_HOST}% {REQUEST_URI} [L, R = 301]

Then save the file and then use Windows Explorer to change the name to .htaccess whereby the point must be in front of the file name. You copy this file into the root directory of the respective web space, i.e. where you export the project with We bsiteX5.

Then you have to enter https instead of http in "5 Export" for "Export the website to the Internet" in the field "URL of the website" for your current entry. Then you click on Preview while holding down the Ctrl key, wait until the green progress bar has run through completely and then upload the project in its entirety, not just the changes.

Thank you for your answer.

I understand that I need to buy certified SSL.

I didn't understand where to put it on the site. Do I have to put it in the home page with the HTML code or do I have to insert it in the ADVANCED (SEO statistics and code)?

You have to activate the SSL certificate with the web host, your internet provider, or he will activate it. It cannot be integrated in the software; it is addressed via the https address.
