 If you use another port such as `8123` or an SSL proxy, change the port number.
 
+## {% linkable_title Enabling auto-renewals %}
+
+Out of the box, the add-on will not automatically renew your certificate. In fact, it only starts, tries to get/renew your certificte, and then stops. It's up to you to manually start it again whenever your certificate comes close to expiry.
+
+However, you can automate this process using Home Assistant.
+
+Use this in your `automations.yaml` to attempt certificate renewal each day at midnight:
+
+```yaml
+- id: letsencrypt-renewal
+  alias: "Let's Encrypt Renewal"
+  trigger:
+  - platform: time
+    at: '00:00:00'
+  action:
+  - service: hassio.addon_restart
+    data:
+      addon: core_letsencrypt
+```
