Disable security notification email?

    Hi,

    Since I set the plugin up, it emails me every day to activate Force HTTPS, but I’m already using a different plugin (Really Simple SSL) to manage that.

    Is there a way to disable these emails, or alternatively, if I do activate HTTPS via both plugins, could it cause any issues? (I’d prefer to keep using Really Simple because of its more detailed options and checks.)

    Thanks!

    Security Notification from ‘Auto-Install Free SSL’

    Content:

    Hello ,

    Thanks for using ‘Auto-Install Free SSL’.

    During configuring this WordPress plugin at [my domain] you provided cPanel password over simple HTTP, which is not a best practice from the security point of view. Data travels the internet as plain text on HTTP. On the other hand, on an HTTPS connection data travels with encryption.

    As our plugin has installed an SSL certificate for you, your website is now capable of this encryption. So we strongly recommend the following security precautions:

    1. Login to your WordPress website, go to the dashboard of ‘Auto-Install Free SSL’ and click the ‘Activate Force HTTPS’ button. Now your website loads over HTTPS, and you get the padlock in the browser address bar.
    2. Change your cPanel password.
    3. Go to the ‘cPanel settings’ page of Auto-Install Free SSL, provide the changed cPanel password and submit.

    That’s it!

    You are receiving this email because you provided the cPanel password over simple HTTP.

    This email tells you to:
    1. Change your cPanel password
    2. Then access your WordPress dashboard over HTTPS. (You don’t need to activate Force HTTPS).
    3. Go to the ‘cPanel settings’ page of Auto-Install Free SSL, provide the changed cPanel password and submit.

    Once you do this, you’ll stop receiving that email.
