AutoSSL on users cPanel

I've looked around but didn't find anything, perhaps my keywords were weak and some one will point me on the right direction. 1) The AutoSSL is only accessible on the WHM or was there an option for users to select the free SSL options (either COMODO or Let's Encrypt base on your setup) from the cPanel of their accounts? I know that with market enable, they will see the paid option available, but I am referring to the free options. 2) If I change to Let's Encrypt or stay with COMODO and also use it on my main domain, will it replace the provided cPanel SSL installed on my server services? Thanks in advance...

  Hello! The AutoSSL options are only available in WHM and there are none inside of cPanel. Also, AutoSSL only handles the user's SSL certificates and the hostname certificate that is used by the services in 'Manage Service SSL Certificates' will still use cPanel issued SSL. This page talks about the hostname SSLs. 56 Release Notes - Version 56 documentation - cPanel Documentation You can also find more about AutoSSL here. Manage AutoSSL - Documentation - cPanel Documentation Thanks!

  Hello, The AutoSSL feature should still attempt to process the remaining domain names under an account in the event it skips the attempt on the primary domain name due to the existence of a preexisting certificate. You can manually create the AutoSSL request for the account after enabling AutoSSL to see how it works with the following command:
  /usr/local/cpanel/bin/autossl_check --user=USERNAME
  Thank you.
