Understanding HTTP-to-HTTPS Redirects After SSL Is Installed Print

An SSL certificate allows HTTPS, but it does not automatically guarantee that every HTTP request will redirect to HTTPS.

cPanel's Domains interface can provide a Force HTTPS Redirect control when the domain meets the interface requirements. Application-level redirects can also exist.

Enable a redirect only after HTTPS works correctly for the domain. Otherwise, a forced redirect can send every visitor directly to a broken or untrusted HTTPS endpoint.
