Re-issuing SSL after migrating
After your site moves to Dirham A Day, your SSL certificate - the thing that gives you the padlock and the secure https address - usually needs to be re-issued on our platform. This is a normal, quick part of migration, and we handle it for you.
Why re-issuing is needed: an SSL certificate is tied to the specific server serving your site. When your site moves to our platform, a fresh certificate is issued here so that your secure padlock keeps working on the new setup. Your visitors should never see a security warning.
How it works:
- Once your site is served from our platform, we issue a new SSL certificate for your domain.
- Your site then loads over https with a valid padlock, just as before.
- We check for any "mixed content" issues (pages that still call an insecure resource) and help resolve them so the padlock stays clean.
What you might notice:
- Around the cutover, there can be a brief moment while the new certificate takes effect - we time this to minimise any impact.
- If you ever see a certificate warning after a move, tell us straight away and we will re-issue promptly.
For most sites this is entirely behind the scenes - you simply keep your green padlock. Secure https is important both for your visitors' trust and for search rankings, so we treat it as a standard step of every migration.
If your padlock is not showing correctly after a move, do not leave it - contact our UAE-based team and we will fix your SSL quickly. WhatsApp +971 58 553 6767 or support@dirhamaday.ae.
