To enable your users to work securely with WebHosting Plesk, you need to do the following:
-
Obtain a valid multi-domain SAN SSL certificate from a certification authority.
This is needed to secure access to control panels through the branded URLs on Plesk-managed service nodes. The certificate must be able to secure both the second-level domain (example.com) and an unlimited number of subdomains of the third level (*.example.com).
- Upload the certificate to the branding settings: Go to System > Settings > Brands > brand name > Certificate tab > Install CA Certificate.
- Make sure that the brand into which you uploaded the certificate is enabled as the default brand for your users. Go to Services > WebHosting Plesk > Branding tab, select the checkbox next to the brand name, and click Disable. After that, select the same checkbox again and click Enable.
If you do not plan to purchase a SAN SSL certificate and secure every created brand with it, you can configure the redirection of users from CloudBlue Commerce to the Plesk panel through the provider's default branding configuration. In this way, users will be redirected to the Plesk panel without any SSL warnings, and the custom logo and styles of user interface elements defined in the provider's brand will be applied to Plesk. If you want to go that route, go to Provider Panel > Services > WebHosting Plesk > Branding, select the check box next to the brand through which you want to redirect users, and click Enable.
