Hi Chan, Webflow automatically generates an SSL certificate for you, so don’t usually need your own.
If there’s a reason you do need to use your own SSL cert, you’d need to use the Enterprise plan, or you could setup something through a proxy, e.g.
PRICELOOP.AI → Cloudflare
Cloudflare is configured with your custom SSL cert
Cloudflare → Webflow e.g. BASE.PRICELOOP.AI
Configured without SSL
I haven’t tried this, but it works in my head, you’d need to dig through the docs and Cloudflare may require a paid plan for a custom SSL cert upload.
That said, fixing that won’t solve your problem. You need to reach out to support if you want to add a custom SSL cert to Webflow (and not use theirs).
As for the option of terminating SSL somewhere outside of Webflow, the high-level idea is good. But using this to bypass Webflow SSL is a bad idea. Don’t do that.
Why?
Web browser → Cloudflare (your SSL cert) → Webflow (no SSL)
All traffic from the termination point, like Cloudflare (using your custom cert) to Webflow is then unencrypted, and if you don’t have SSL turned on with Webflow, parts of Webflow won’t work. It’s basically required, and for good reason.
If all else fails Webflow will allow you to use your own, custom SSL cert, you just have to pay Webflow for that option. Reach out to them through support.
Morning @ChrisDrit
Thank you very much for your quick response. I also found some info on this community saying that removing TXT record would not hurt anything, so I already deleted the TXT record an hour ago.
But the issue still remains.
Adding a TXT record is actually suggested by Webflow in the dashboard (Designer → Publishing)
Yes, the website works just the dashboard keeps showing the issues that bothers me.
The dashboard is showing that priceloop.ai is correctly connect while www.priceloop.ai has issues. Then I tried to set priceloop.ai as default but it returns error (because of too many redirects), so I can only set www.priceloop.ai as default.
And I also see the dramatically drop in organic traffic due to redirect issue (site with www and without) , so I am wondering if the issue is the cause.
