Plesk: WordPress on HTTPS

11200 views

For WordPress to work properly on HTTPS, there are three steps.

1. Certificate and redirect

Make sure the domain has an SSL certificate and turn on the HTTPS redirect: see Plesk: Free SSL and redirecting to HTTPS.

2. WordPress addresses

In WordPress Toolkit, from the site card's menu click Update Site URL and enter the address with https://.

Alternatively, inside WordPress: Settings → General, change WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) to https:// and click Save Changes.

3. Old http links

If some images or files still load over http://, the browser shows the page as not fully secure. See My website shows as not secure.

Note: if a WordPress plugin does its own HTTPS redirect, keep only one of the two on, so they don't conflict.
