I followed this setup, but I get a "This certificate was signed by an unknown authority" error in Chrome. Most of the other web browsers don't throw any errors. When running my domain through an SSL checker, it says

The certificate is not trusted in all web browsers. You may need to install an Intermediate/chain certificate to link it to a trusted root certificate. Learn more about this error. The fastest way to fix this problem is to contact your SSL provider

I know Godaddy uses/requires an Intermediate certificate to work properly. However, Switchvox won't let me enter anything into the Intermediate CA box. It say's "Intermediate CA Certificate is invalid."

Do I need to bundle the intermediate certificate with the X.509 certificate?

My Godaddy certificate is a unlimited subdomain wildcard cert.
