    Tell your hosting company that the certificate they've put on your site is self-signed, and not issued by a Trusted Authority.
    They'll know exactly what that means, and should fix it up in a couple minutes if they actually did buy a legit certificate for you.

    And tell them to visit your HTTPS address: https://www.nairnshire-modelling-supplies.co.uk and see for themselves that the server is clearly not configured properly for SSL on your domain.

    We gave up on our existing host and made the move to a trusted and certified Zen Cart host. The difference is unbelievable and the small cost of doing so has put our site on a much more secure and sound footing - in more ways than one. The moral of our story: get an expert to help and be prepared to pay a little to do so, for peace of mind. We were fortunate enough to make the move and get the site updated to the latest version and on a reliable ZenCart-friendly server with proper SSL protection before anything went wrong.

    Our thanks to Edith - I am sure she knows who we are referring to. Now I can get on with the business of running my business and not frigging around with code I do not really understand.

    My thanks to DrByte too - for making me think much more carefully about what I am doing and the risks.
