Not sure my reply to this went through, probably user error

In repy to my issue with deleting my SSL’s from Siteground server using the Cpanel bc/ of an unknown issue, and how to find the CRT and Private keys since you never actually see them using the automated Siteground installer.

Site ground has a .ssl hidden folder at the root that has a certificate folder and a private key folder. You can then use the SSL Manager and install it manually by copying and pasting into the Certificate Textarea and then the Private key into the Private Key textarea. Thanks man this got me pointed in the right direction and resolved my issue. Site is now secure.

In addition to the reply posted by @hanlonhart, I'd mention that the reason why revoking a cert doesn't restore your limit is because the current limits are not there to restrict the number of active certificates, rather the number of issued certificate to make sure that the resources available are properly distributed among all the users.

If I followed correctly, the limiting factor is oscp signing every 4 days for every valid certs. As revoking a cert only needs one ocsp signing, period, it could actually raise the limit.
