To prevent redirection of your site URLs from http:// to https:// -- while still allowing both versions of your site to be reached:
- Visit the Domains page in your control panel.
- Click the downward-pointing wedge next the subdomain to show its advanced options.
- Uncheck the 'Redirect http to https for this vhost' option.
- Click 'Submit changes'.
- Open up your site using SFTP or SSH (the File manager page in the control panel provides instructions for this).
- Navigate to the folder for the subdomain(s) for which you wish to disable Let's Encrypt.
- Create a file, with any contents, called '.disable-letsencrypt', and place it in this folder.
- Visit the Domains page in your control panel.
- Remove the subdomain by clearing its field and submitting the page.
- Re-add the subdomain.
