Title: Multiple Domains, One SSL - HELP!
Post by: Hammerhead on December 17, 2015, 19:10:29 PM
I'm trying to set up VM with the intention of using one install for multiple domains using VirtualDomains to change the template and product presentation on-the-fly based on the URL and customer type / target market.

The installation and configuration of both the hosting environment and Joomla/VM has been done with our 'corporate' name.  Now we want to segment our market and present merchandise based on the URL.

For example, in VM we would have three categories
Planes
Trains
Automobiles

So, when a user goes to:
planes.com, they see airplanes in VM and a train style template
trains.com, they see trains in VM and a railroad style template... and so on.

However, when accessing via a domain that is NOT the primary, an SSL warning is triggered because the certificate was cut with the original company name and domain that was used to set up the account, and we can have only one SSL on this plan.  I'm hoping someone can help me figure out how to redirect accordingly so that our customers are not put off by the server warnings.

Thanks in advance!

in my limited understanding of this you need a Wildcard SSL certificates

Wildcard SSL is the perfect certificate for businesses wants to secure multiple same level sub-domains on single root domain.
