### To Install a Third-Party SSL Certificate

To install a third party SSL, you need to have generated it from the SSL vendor, and received your SSL files; the .crt file, the .ca file. To do that for a Truehost SSL, see [these steps.](https://truehost.com/support/knowledge-base/how-to-install-ssl-from-truehost-client-area/)

Also, you will need the Private key asscociated with the CSR that you used to get the certificate. [See here](https://truehost.com/support/knowledge-base/how-to-install-an-ssl-certificate-in-webuzo/)

Once you have the SSL files and the key, proceed as follows;

- Log in to your webuzo user panel using [these steps](https://truehost.com/support/knowledge-base/how-to-access-user-panel-in-webuzo/)

- In the **Select Domain** section, choose the domain for which you have created an SSL certificate 
- Insert/paste the *Private Key* in the **Paste your key here** field. It is the code that starts with **—–BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY—–** and ends with **—–END RSA PRIVATE KEY—–**.
- Insert/paste the *certificate details* in the **Paste your Certificate here** field. It is the code that starts with **—–BEGIN CERTIFICATE—–** and ends with **—–END CERTIFICATE—–**.

- Click the **Install** button.
