Moving from http to https

I recently had an SSL installed on the server. Currently, it redirects all https traffic to http. I would like to have the site on https but when I add it in the settings page under “wordpress address” and “site address” it puts the site in a redirect loop when you visit the page. Are there other steps I need to take to convert the address to https?

Hi There,

Please try with this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/

After that find all the http URL then replace with the https URLs.

Hope it helps :slight_smile:

I ran the suggested plug-in, but it cannot access anything in Cornerstone, just WordPress tables. Do you have any ideas how to update sites to https and fix the broken links in Cornerstone?

Hi @cyberando,

Please install the Better Search Replace plugin then do the following:


    search for http://example.com and replace it with https://example.com and
    search for http:\/\/example.com and replace it with https:\/\/example.com

Replace example.com with the domain name of your site.

Hope this helps.
