The easy answer is to use a certificate from Let's Encrypt - certificates are free, on-rev can enable them and will renew them automatically.

All you need to do is send an email to on-rev support and they will set it up for you (though obviously, this is the holidays so they may take a little while :-)

Here's a clip of an email I got from David while I was requesting it ...


The way this works is that all sites under your account which are not currently secured with a preexisting SSL certificate will be automatically set up with a Let's Encrypt certificate. This process is entirely automated and does not require any manual setup from yourself, and the certificates are automatically renewed when they are about to
expire.

This can be set up for On-Rev accounts as well as Livecode Hosting accounts. I can enable this for your account if you would like me to do so.
One example I have is https://kilmelford.com

Probably not relevant for you Tim, but it is possible, and advisable, to redirect all non-https URLs into the secure versions - though I have yet to do it myself.
A good guide - just ignore the hostM-specific parts - can be found at

Hi,

I have on on-rev account on sage. Also use the Jimdo service, and put iframes from on-rev with .lc scripts into the Jimdo pages.

Now Jimdo is requiring all outside widgets, scripts, iframes, etc. to come from secure (https) domains.

Complete newbie on SSL... looking at Cpanel help pages was not too helpful. Can anyone give a quick rundown of the process? Or point to a tutorial for beginners?

Many thanks
