Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.
The site certificate shown is for: JoeNobel.com [and a self-signed 1 year cert]
You connected to: www.JoeNobel.com [which does not match your cert and should always fail as the cert is untrusted]
Sooo, when a visitor is given the url of joenobel.com they are out of luck? Ought they not be able to form the URL any which way they please?
How do I set these certs up to just work?
First, start by answering these question [with as much relevant detail]:

My domain is:
I ran this command:
It produced this output:
My web server is (include version):
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know):
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
You need to include both joenobel.com and www.joenobel.com as names that are covered by your Let's Encrypt certificate. Then browsers will not show an error regardless of which form was used to access the site.
What I think is confusing @rg305 in terms of giving you further advice is that you didn't really tell us how you obtained that certificate, for example whether you got it from inside your control panel, or using a Let's Encrypt client application, or a third-party web site, or some other method. (To make it work, you'll need to reissue the certificate including the other name, but we can't easily suggest how to do that until we know what kind of tools you used to request the original certificate.)
Sorry for so long to return to this problem. I am using the control panel – ISP Manager.
On the main SSL Certificates panel
first 3 entries are joenobel.com_le2 (In use)
joenobel.com_le1 (Not used) joenobel.com (Not used)
Thank you @JuergenAuer,
I just corrected issue. I could not find a manage certificates, however, I removed and re-created the certificate for joenobel.com. Now it works correctly. I then took your advice and changed all the http links to https, they were all available in https.
Yep, now it's completely green. But later you should add a preferred version (www or non-www) and redirects http -> https. So users and search engines have one version via https.
