  I’m having difficulty understanding the SSL Cert. in WordPress.
  WP indicates automatic processing yet my site indicates a faulty cert.
  I do not know how to fix this.

  Hi there!

  What’s the address of the site you’re working on?

  Please note that these forums are for WordPress.com-hosted sites only. If your site is using the open-source WordPress.org software, we won’t be able to help you out, and you’ll want to seek help at these forums:

  This is a hobby site and I am very limited in understanding how this works.

  site: fieldpointebrewery.net

  I registered the domain from name cheap and hosted at WP.

  I can’t access the site via Safari because it is deemed insecure. I have to use Firefox to get at it.

  Thanks for the reply.

  Hi there,

  I checked your site and it is using the open-source WordPress.org software, so you’ll need to seek help at these forums:

  https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  These forums are for WordPress.com-hosted sites only. Since we do not have access to self-hosted WordPress.org sites, we are unable to provide any direct assistance to your issue. I would also reach out to your site host for help.

  If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org you can read this document:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Thanks!

  Nuts!

  I really am clueless on all of this but I can help you with Algebra 1 and 2 and Geometry as a middle school math teacher.

  Thanks for your time and input. I might get this figured out. Time to figure out who the site host is. (That’s how much I don’t know.) Arg.
