1. Can the SSL certificate be used for only one webpage or is it for the whole website? 1a. If I buy the SSL service is there anyone that could help me make it work in my Joomla code (which was coded by a third party)? 2. is there a tutorial that explains what the log tools are showing?

Hello, Thank you for submitting a question regarding SSL on a single page. We are happy to answer your questions today. 1. Your SSL is attached to an entire domain. This means if the SSL is for 'example.com' that any page under that domain can be covered by the SSL. You can view the pages either with or without SSL by simply changing the protocol in the URL (http://example.com is standard, while https://example.com is the SSL version) 1a. If you purchase an SSL, then it should work with your Joomla site without issue. The only reason it may not would be if the standard protocol (http:) was hardcoded into the site somewhere. 2. We do not have an article on our site that breaks down the AWSTATS data, but our article links to their documentation. You can view that here. Kindest Regards, Scott M
