  Hi! I just set up a new WordPress site at wordpress.com and a visitor from Romania was telling me had multiple certificate errors and had to click through multiple times before getting to my site? I have asked him for screen shots and the error messages. No one else from the Americas, Europe, or Asia have reported anything like this.

  Here’s what happens to cause this.

  My domain name format is like this xyzabc.wordpress.com

  Note this is not a real domain name, but substitute a wordpress site name for the xyzabc characters.

  If you go to https://xyzabc.wordpress.com or http://www.xyzabc.wordpress.com, both resolve without errors and you end up at https://xyzabc.wordpress.com

  But if you type https://www.xyzabc.wordpress.com , that will resolve with a certificate error.

  Hi there,

  Do you mind sharing the URL of the site that is receiving the certificate errors? We’ll be able to better assess the issue if we could take a look at the site in question.

  Thanks,
