I have my domain with Namesco and have changed my Nameservers to the ones directed in the txt. It mentions changing the DNS but has no more info on this subject. Can someone please help. Thanks in advance.

free x10 accounts do not provide secure https (ssl)
they say there is a way around this using cloudflare or similar.
i can not help with that, I dont use cloudflare.
maybe staff can update you on what you need to do.

@spacresx is exactly correct. You can see many tutorials on how to use Cloudflare (or anyone else who offers an HTTPS proxy). You must use "flexible" mode (HTTPS on the user side, but HTTP on the server side). You must have your own domain for this (not .x10.mx, .pcriot.com, etc. etc.).

If you decide to go this route and need help, just let us know.

Don't use DirectAdmin SSL because it will give an error with the invalid certificate. However, if you click on your domain in DirectAdmin, there's a button that says SSL options. If that is not set to symbolic link, you will get an error if the folder ~/domains/[your domain here]/private_html is invalid.

My SSL options are already set to symbolic link, i still get the "Your connection is not secure" error but now im getting "Apache is functioning normally" error too, im working on cloudflair atm to solve the connection error but im unsure what i have changed to show this Apache error.
Thanks for all the help so far

Both work fine for me using HTTP. HTTPS does not work, which it should not.

Cloudflare needs to use HTTP in flexible mode.
