    Currently im testing IPv6 on some domains and added AAAA records for some.

    Unfortunately it does not generate IPv6 certificates. The LetsEncrypt log does not even mention it even though the DNS entries are made. No errors where found in the log.

    The choices on the website are IPv4 * and IPv6 (empty)

    Am i missing something or can someone point me into the right direction?!

    An SSL cert is issued for a domain name, the IP does not matter for SSL certs.

    Im getting certfication errors after going to a domain i added AAAA records for. I tried to regenerate the certs, but it does not make a difference.

    As mentioned above, a cert is not issued for an IP, it is issued for a domain. If you access that domain by IPv4 or IPv6 does not matter, so regenerating certs can not help if you have an IPv6 issue as the issue is not related to that cert. Which exact error do you get and is the correct website shown when you accept the error?

    No its not. it wants to go to the first SSL enabled websites that it hits in alphabetical order.

    Also,
    Setting up the website do or dont i have to choose a IPv6 adress? Im keeping the IPv4 as *, but somehow i found it that not selecting a IPv6 adress in the website settings IPv6 does not work?

    The * in IPv4 field includes IPv6 wildcard as well, so when * I used in IPv4 field, you don't have to select something in IPv6 field. But this is how it generally works and how it works on my servers, if it does not work on your system due to a different base setup, then add your IPv6 address under System > server IP and select it in the IPv6 field of the website.
