WHM+WordPress+WHMCS+SSL

Posted by verbotten, 05-02-2015, 07:53 PM
I was wondering what would be a better approach with setting up a reseller site when it comes to installing SSL? Choices I'd like to address would be: Should I install SSL covering everything the whole wordpress site? or should I get it only for WHMCS as a subdomain? Is there a more practical approach? like https://accounts.mydomain.com and have rest of the site http. or keep WHMCS on a totally different domain. I've seen completely different setups and am confused to why those decisions were made so. What is the best way for it. If I set wordpress to http then i don't think I can set specific pages as https. any thoughts? Last edited by verbotten; 05-02-2015 at 07:56 PM.

Usually with WordPress you force connections over http or https via .htaccess redirects. There is not much need to force WP over HTTPS if there is no sensitive data passing through. WHMCS should most definitely have an SSL installed. Having it on a subdomain is fine but if you're using cPanel, it's best to separate it into it's own account.

I suggest you to move everything over to HTTPS. Recently Google announced that HTTPS will be a factor in SEO as well.

I did that, put everything under SSL. Thanks for replies.
