    I’m looking to make use of this plugin with a fully dockerized solution, meaning I don’t have root or cpanel access. If your paid plugin can deploy the certificate automatically, does it mean it has a way to securely store the certificates and direct apache to them without root access, or are there additional settings that are available after upgrade to pro, that give the plugin the access it needs to the underlying web service?

    If the former, where within the wordpress site root should the certificates be placed, and how does the plugin notify apache to look for the certificate files there?

    @stevesirag Our free plugin don’t really have any solution for your case as you don’t have either cpanel or root SSH access. But if you have the ability to update DNS records of your domain, then our ANNUAL Pro plan would be best fit as we offer an alternative SSL solution which works for any kind of site on any host just by updating minor DNS record.
