3. ssl certificate support for the above cases.  for the subdirectory case (http://dcmembers.com/mouser) this is trivial; for subdomains it can be done with a wildcard certificate, which could cost real money.  For remapping top-level domains to a wordpress multisite network.. I don't know.. it might not even be possible..

I don't know much about SSL Certificates, but couldn't you use Let's Encrypt to get certificates for all of the above?

rgdot:
That should be doable easily, newer versions of cPanel even have it simpler as a feature. It being Let's Encrypt of course.

Speaking of...

Let’s Encrypt will begin issuing wildcard certificates in January of 2018. Wildcard certificates are a commonly requested feature and we understand that there are some use cases where they make HTTPS deployment easier. Our hope is that offering wildcards will help to accelerate the Web’s progress towards 100% HTTPS.-https://letsencrypt.org/2017/07/06/wildcard-certificates-coming-jan-2018.html

mouser:
Awesome news.  :up:

Deozaan:
I guess it got delayed but Let's Encrypt just launched wildcard certificates.
