I switched to HTTPS and now uploads/playback are broken

Q My main site works fine over HTTPS, but after switching, file uploads and video playback stop working entirely. What am I missing?
A Your file servers need their own valid HTTPS certificate - the certificate on your main site does not cover them.

You have two options:
  • Install a free Let's Encrypt certificate yourself on each file server (nginx).
  • Order the HTTPS mod and we will purchase and configure the certificates for you.
