Domain Matching error but cert appears correct

My domain is: forinstance.io

I ran this command: whynopadlock.com (used to check status of site)

It produced this output: Your SSL certificate does not match your domain name! Protected Domains: forinstance.io - (in addition lock does not show up in browser when I visit domain. Plus I get a security warning. “Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead”)

Please let me know what my next step is to resolve this error. Thanks!

When visiting that domain, it's presenting a cert for pagely.com and *.pagely.com. You may have issued a cert for your domain, but you aren't using it (or, perhaps, your DNS records are pointing to the wrong place).

Actually wait a minute it’s forinstance.io, not forinstance.com

I don’t get the pagely error on forinstance.io.

Yes, but .io redirects to .com (which is a completely different IP address), which presents the cert for pagely.com.

Holy smokes you are 100% correct! I screwed up my nginx.conf.
Thank you so much I just couldn’t see it!
