• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

How do I allow a domain to "use" SSL Certificate

I've just purchased and installed an SSL certificate for a domain without any problems.

But the domain won't use the certificate.

When I go to Domains >> domain.com >> SSL Certificate, the cert appears and it all looks good except that under the "Used" column it says 0.

The certificate doesn't show up at all in Home >> Settings >> SSL Certificates.

What do I have to do to enable the cert to be actually used?
 
I've worked it out.

Go to domain.com >> Web Hosting Settings, click the SSL support checkbox and select the cert from the drop down list on that screen.

It didn't work right away, but after rebooting the server it played nice.
 
You dont require a full server reboot for this. By going to your IP manager icon you can change the cert associated with an IP. Just click on the IP hosting is setup on. You need to assign the certificate there also.
 
GoDaddy is my hosting provider and they had installed my SSL certificate for me but I was unable to access my site with https. Your post helped me enable SSL on my site.
