My certificate expired today and I just happened to find the right command to renew it seamlessly.
As root run the following command and replace example.com with your domain name.

A co-worker asked if it was possible to ask WordPress to keep an active session longer than one day or 14 days if you click the “Remember Me.”
Which brought to a post on WordPress Development Stack Exchange where Alex Mills ( Viper007Bond) had solved this problem a year ago. This serves as a reminder of how important he was to the WordPress community. I frequently stumble upon his answers and no longer have the opportunity to thank him for taking the time.
// Extends user session to one year
add_filter( 'auth_cookie_expiration', 'keep_me_logged_in_for_1_year' );
function keep_me_logged_in_for_1_year( $expirein ) {
return 31556926; // 1 year in seconds
}I find the code hilarious in that it would extend period for a year which is clearly excessive. I’m sure he meant that as a joke. 😀

WordPress Site Health Zen Achieved
One of the advantages of using a service like Digital Ocean to host a site is that I can micro manage every detail personally. This is the reward. The most difficult part was finding documentation for pointing PHP to use 7.3 instead of 7.2.
I found the answer on this blog post.
The other task was activating a PHP module and I found that answer over at SiteGround.
