Using one of those 5 providers is only required if it's a wildcard certificate you're creating, otherwise you're free to use whoever you want.

Let's encrypt without DNS provider
I'm currently testing Forge (in combination with Envoyer) for devops. I really like it so far, but I have one issue which is kind of blocking for me.
When adding SSL with Let's encrypt to a site, you have a choice of 5 DNS providers (Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, DNSimple, Linode and Route 53).
Is there a way to add a Let's encrypt certificate without using one of these DNS providers, as I'm not in control of the DNS for my projects most of the time?

@gillidanda, thanks, already figured this out thanks to Taylor. Did forget to put this here in case anybody else was wondering the same thing.

Yeah, I made this mistake a while ago and drove me nuts. I had to tweet Taylor. I wish they would get the support documentation back online.
