I have spent the last hour trying to work out how to get an SSL certificate onto this WordPress site and its doing my head in.

I have managed successfully to purchase said certificate for the yet to be finished, Ilku-global.com site.  This appears to have been successful and buoyed up with a misplaced sense of confidence I approach www.still-talking.com, hosted by WordPress, to do similar.

However, after reading copious, supposedly helpful websites on how to do this, then downloading a whole pile of nonsense files which now lurk in my download folder having been unzipped but are not running/playing; googling madly and using the not very helpful, help site on WordPress;  I’m giving up, for now.

All I want is a simple link to a site that allows me to get an SSL certificate for this WordPress site so it stops saying “not secure”.  It doesn’t seem that this exists and I cannot wrap my grey matter around the myriad of acronyms and gobbledygook that is out there.  Written by people old enough to be my grandchildren,  they are obviously under the illusion that they are being very clear however, they obviously skipped English class as they were too busy coding.

So the “not Secure” message still comes up in Chrome but by the end of this weekend, it will be no longer.

But right now I need to go and dunk my ego and ineptitude in a vat of vodka, soda and freshly squeezed lime.

Tomorrow is another day .
