I want to purchase an SSL certificate for my domain, but I have never worked with certificates.I will purchase it at DNSimple, my APP is on heroku and my domain is at all-inkl.Will the wildcard certificate also cover all subdirectories (These are generated by my python flask app and are shown as URLs):for example: www.example.com (root) and www.example.com/sub and www.example.com/sub/test
SSL certificate wildcard / single name - will it work for subdirectories?
security certificate
You don't need a wildcard certificate to secure subdirectories. All SSL certs will secure subdirectories. SSL certs secure hosts (domains). A wildcard cert will ordinarily secure subdomains eg. <anysubdomain>.example.com - but this should be made clear when you purchase the cert.
