Will this SSL will override my own certificate?

I am a little confused with the cloudflare SSL option for https.

I already have a cert for https, so will this override what i already have?

Many thanks

Yes. If you already have SSL, you can sign up for Cloudflare to take advantage of the other features provided - like DDOS protection, or improving site performance, wholesale domain renewal fees, or any of the other products CF offers.

I literally bought my SSL certificate about 2 weeks ago… Surely there is no point in having 2?

There’s totally a point to having two. Your server needs one so the Cloudflare proxy can connect to it securely. And the Cloudflare proxy needs one so your visitors can connect securely to the proxy.
