Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/issues/858

I enabled "default site" setting to display the Congrats page for

What to show when Nginx is hit with an unknown Host

As the subfield tells
I have 2 proxy hosts a.example.com and b.example.com

When I try to reach c.example.com, I expect to see the Congrats page. instead I have a browser message about insecure connection with the Dummy certificate from Nginx Proxy Manager.

Did I miss a configuration here ?

Looks like the proxy manager doesn't have an SSL-ready URL to publish the page.
Bug, feature or missing piece of config ?

HTTPS on non-existing hosts is doomed to fail.
Need a wildcard domain to maybe be able to support this. I don't know if it's enough.

@mat-m were you able to figure this out? It seems /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf includes the dummy certs by default. Is there really no way of setting the default site correctly?
