Problem
You are using one or more domain aliases (or parked domain), but you are getting an SSL warning “Your connection is not private” in your browser, when you are trying to view you SSL protected website.
Chrome: “Your connection is not private”
Microsoft Edge / Internet Explorer: “There is a problem with this website’s security certificate.”
Mozilla Firefox: "Your connection is not secure"
Safari: “Safari can’t verify the identity of the website”
Cause
This error can occur when you have an SSL certificate on your primary domain name and attempt to view an URL using a domain alias. The web browser is unable to match the website to the supplied SSL certificate and returns the error message.
Resolution
Find you .htaccess file in the public_html folder and enter the text below into your .htaccess file. Remember to edit the domain name to your own.
