 * Hi!
 * We’re using a test site over at WPEngine (e.g. testsite1.wpengine.com), which
   does have it’s own SSL cert (going to [https://testsite1.wpengine.com](https://testsite1.wpengine.com)
   shows a valid SSL cert).
 * I’ve setup plugin by clicking on “create your own certificate”.
 * We’re trying to set this up with a ADFS server, but the error we get is “exception
   certificate validation failed”.
 * Is that due to using a self-signed/self-generated cert on a site that has it’s
   own cert (SSL)?
 * Let me know if my question makes sense. Thank you!
    -Marco
