Hello,

One of out volenteers made error, by request 1 cert for eacht subdomain and now i am getting 🙂

There were too many requests of a given type :: Error creating new cert :: Too many certificates already issued for: some.domain

My question is what is the current rate limit by name for production, is stil 59 days if so do rely have to wait 59 days or is there a workaround ?

20 certificates/domain/week is the main limit. If you’ve exceeded that, wait a week and you’ll be good.
