-Unfortunately, this page only exists [in french here](certificate_custom_fr) for now.
+**Note:** since version 2.5, YunoHost integrates Let's Encrypt certificates automated management. You can easily and freely [install a Let's Encrypt certificate](/certificate). The following document describes the steps for installing a paid certificate from a certification authority (**Gandi**, **RapidSSL**, **StartSSL**, **Cacert**).
+
+Some changes have taken place which impact the procedures indicated below:
+
+* Metronome group is no longer used directly but ssl-cert.
+* A `/etc/yunohost/certs/DOMAIN.LTD-history/stamp` directory is used to keep each configuration created and a symlink is created.
+
+### Adding a signed certificate by an authority (other than Let's Encrypt)
+
+After the certificate creation with your registration authority, you must have a private key, the key file, and a public certificate, the crt file.
+> Note that the key file is very sensitive, it is strictly personal and must be very well secured.
+
+These two files should be copied to the server, if they are not already there.
+
+```bash
+scp CERTIFICAT.crt admin@DOMAIN.TLD:ssl.crt
+scp CLE.key admin@DOMAIN.TLD:ssl.key
+```
+
+From Windows, scp can be used with Putty, by downloading the tool [pscp](http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/pscp.exe)
+
+```bash
+pscp -P 22 CERTIFICAT.crt admin@DOMAIN.TLD:ssl.crt
+pscp -P 22 CLE.key admin@DOMAIN.TLD:ssl.key
+```
+
+As soon as the files are on the server, the rest of the work will be done on it. In [ssh](/ssh) or locally.
+First, create a folder to store the obtained certificates.
+
+```bash
+sudo mkdir /etc/yunohost/certs/DOMAIN.TLD/ae_certs
+sudo mv ssl.key ssl.crt /etc/yunohost/certs/DOMAIN.TLD/ae_certs/
+```
+
+Then, go to the parent folder to continue.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/yunohost/certs/DOMAIN.TLD/
+```
+
+As a caution, back up the certificates of origin from YunoHost.
+
+```bash
+sudo mkdir yunohost_self_signed
+sudo mv *.pem *.cnf yunohost_self_signed/
+```
+
+Depending on the registration authority, intermediate and root certificates must be obtained.
+
+> **StartSSL**
+> ```bash
+> sudo wget http://www.startssl.com/certs/ca.pem -O ae_certs/ca.pem
+> sudo wget http://www.startssl.com/certs/sub.class1.server.ca.pem -O ae_certs/intermediate_ca.pem
+>```
+
+> **Gandi**
+> ```bash
+> sudo wget https://www.gandi.net/static/CAs/GandiStandardSSLCA2.pem -O ae_certs/intermediate_ca.pem
+>```
+
+> **RapidSSL**
+> ```bash
+> sudo wget https://knowledge.rapidssl.com/library/VERISIGN/INTERNATIONAL_AFFILIATES/RapidSSL/AR1548/RapidSSLCABundle.txt -O ae_certs/intermediate_ca.pem
+>```
+
+> **Cacert**
+> ```bash
+> sudo wget http://www.cacert.org/certs/root.crt -O ae_certs/ca.pem
+> sudo wget http://www.cacert.org/certs/class3.crt -O ae_certs/intermediate_ca.pem
+>```
+
+Intermediate and root certificates must be combined with the obtained certificate to create a unified certificate chain.
+
+```bash
+cat ae_certs/ssl.crt ae_certs/intermediate_ca.pem ae_certs/ca.pem | sudo tee crt.pem
+```
+
+The private key must be converted to `.pem` format.
+
+```bash
+sudo openssl rsa -in ae_certs/ssl.key -out key.pem -outform PEM
+```
+
+To ensure the certificates syntax, check the files contents.
+
+```bash
+cat crt.pem key.pem
+```
+
+The certificates and private key should look like this:
+
+`-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----`
+`MIICVDCCAb0CAQEwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEEBQAwdDELMAkGA1UEBhMCRlIxFTATBgNV`
+`BAgTDENvcnNlIGR1IFN1ZDEQMA4GA1UEBxMHQWphY2NpbzEMMAoGA1UEChMDTExC`

+`9t/rrbdGzXXOCl3up99naL5XAzCIp6r5`
+`-----END CERTIFICATE-----`
+
+Finally, secure your certificate files.
+
+```bash
+sudo chown root:metronome crt.pem key.pem
+sudo chmod 640 crt.pem key.pem
+sudo chown root:root -R ae_certs
+sudo chmod 600 -R ae_certs
+```
+
+Now the certificates (two files with the extension `.pem`) must be copied in `/etc/yunohost/certs/DOMAIN.TLD`.
+
+```bash
+cp ae_certs/*.pem ./
+```
+
+Reload NGINX configuration to take into account the new certificate.
+
+```bash
+sudo service nginx reload
+```
+
+Your certificate is ready. However, you can ensure that it is in place by testing the certificate using the geocerts.
