I could see that SSL is properly installed on your website https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html#hostname=pgrepublic.com

Are you using apache or any other webserver?

Try to restart apache to see the affect.

If your htaccess redirect to www try to remove www and redirect to https://pgrepublic.com

Or simply add redirect on vhost :

Code: [Select]
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example.com
Redirect / https://example.com/ <== add this line below ServerName
</VirtualHost>

Yes I restarted the apache, even restarted whole server couple of times. No effect

I can try that, but this is not the solution to the problem. AutoSSL should generate for both pgrepublic.com and www.pgrepublic.com. Other thing is SEO and bank links which I am afraid of

if you check https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html#hostname=www.pgrepublic.com you will notice "None of the common names in the certificate match the name that was entered (www.pgrepublic.com). You may receive an error when accessing this site in a web browser."

You must remove the redirect from http to https before generating the Auto ssl, then you could place it again

Thanks @josemnunez, that was the issue.

For any one coming here or future me.

If wordpress is hosted on HTTPS first and then moved to CWP. need to change `siteurl` and `home` values to be without https in `wp_options` table. This will stop the redirect to https. Then generate the certificate.

It does solve my problem
