The Web Manager lets you control three things for each site (main domain, addon, and subdomain): SSL Redirect, Server Cache, and ModSecurity. You flip a switch per row; changes apply in a few seconds.

Who can use this

The signed-in account owner. If a reseller/admin opens your account, they see the same controls.

Before you start

Issue a valid SSL certificate in SSL Manager first. Turning on SSL Redirect without a certificate will send visitors to HTTPS and show a browser warning.

What you see on this page

A table of your domains with three columns of switches:
• SSL Redirect — forces HTTP → HTTPS for that site.
• Server Cache — speeds up pages by serving cached copies from the server.
• ModSecurity — web-application firewall that blocks common attacks.
Each column has a small ? icon—hover it for a short tip. Some switches may be disabled if the server software required for that feature isn’t installed.

Turn on SSL Redirect (recommended)

1) Find your domain row and flip the SSL Redirect switch on.
2) Wait a few seconds for the change to apply, then open your site—its URL should start with https://.
If you see a warning, go to SSL Manager and issue/renew a certificate, then try again.

Use Server Cache (faster pages)

1) Flip the Server Cache switch on for a domain to enable server-side caching.
2) Click Cache Settings to fine-tune (example options may include cache time and exclude rules).
3) After updates to your site (themes/plugins/content), click Clear Cache to show the newest version to visitors.
Tip: For sites with logins, carts, or checkouts, exclude those pages from cache in Cache Settings so they always stay fresh.

Enable ModSecurity (extra protection)

Flip the ModSecurity switch on to filter malicious requests. If a legitimate action is blocked (e.g., a form won’t submit), temporarily turn it off to test, then turn it back on and contact support to whitelist a safe rule if needed.

When features are available

• Server Cache shows only when Nginx is installed on the server.
• ModSecurity shows when Apache (or Nginx+Apache) is installed.
• SSL Redirect is generally available for all domains.

Common tasks

• Pushed a site update and visitors still see the old page? Click Clear Cache for that domain.
• Mixed-content warning after turning on HTTPS? Update your site URLs to use https:// and re-run Clear Cache.
• A plugin breaks only when ModSecurity is on? Disable it briefly to confirm, then re-enable and ask to adjust the security rule.

Good practice

Keep SSL Redirect on once you have a certificate. Use Server Cache for public pages, but exclude checkout, cart, and account pages. Leave ModSecurity on by default for protection.
