I have a Wordpress site on a domain like http://friend.mysite.com
I want to redirect to this site form a domain with ssl like https://myfriendsdomain.com
I activated ssl and proxy on myfriendsdomain and its also in the browser address bar. The site is shown, but the formatting is broken. looks like css is off or something. I'm an App developer, so I make websites only from time to time.
What can I do, to make this redirection with https work?
You need to go to Cpanel and redirect the domain to a specific location.

I have changed my domain name from (www.example.com)
to (in.example.com)
the issue is that all old facebook links and campaigns links redirect to the old domain which will show an error due to the change of the domain.
and I am really not good with IIS rules, I have searched on how to make rules to handle this but I could not make it.
all that I need is very simple: if the user open http://www.example.com/Vehicle/all
it should redirect him to
http://in.example.com/Vehicle/all
if the user visits the direct domain it should not remain on the same original domain: http://www.example.com
You Can do redirection from your cpanel. you will find redirection under Domains section
I have a simple WP blog that doesn't need https.
My host was offering a free SSL certificate so I took that up.
It's only after that I read that turning a site to https is like having a brand new site and therefore starting SEO all over again.
I've recently moved host and had to use the backups I made to move the content across. I've found out all the internal links on the site are https, probably because the site was secured at the time of making the backup. Unfortunately the browser says my https pages are not secured despite an SSL certificate that seems installed.
Rather than resolving that, I think I will benefit more by turning my site back to http. All my backlinks over the years point to http. So how do I convert all internal links that point to https pages back to http?
All the resources I find online are to turn http to https.
Database
You need to change the site and home urls in the database table wp_options to the url without https.
Links
Then use a plugin to change the media links and anything using your https url to the http url, I recommend Velvet Blues here wordpress.org/plugins/velvet-blues-update-urls
Redirection
You also need to redirect all your https urls to the http one, you can use this plugin wordpress.org/plugins/redirection. As Google and other search engines have indexed https for your site.
Permalinks
You can also try update your permalinks in General > Permalinks and just resave it.
We use wordpress and our subdomain sites recently started redirecting to our main site.
Exmaple, sub.example.com/products redirects to https://example.com/products and gets a 404.
I did notice if I add https:// in front of the subdomain it goes to the proper subdomain site. What would cause that? How would I fix that issue? I want the user to be able to put sub.example.com and get the proper site without needing to type in the https part.
The only thing that I remember changing recently was adding the ssl certificate.
Thanks!
I recently experienced this issue. Check for any wordpress plugins forcing HTTPs on any http domains. Or anything on your subdomain forcing https when it isn't an https site.
Here is the existing configuration of my site:
I have a CNAME record www to example.com in Cloudflare DNS settings.
Nothing in .htaccess of the original host server.
WordPress site has its Website and Home address set to http://example.com
I don't have a clear understanding of what Cloudflare does and how it integrates with WordPress. However, I would like to achieve this without making any changes in WordPress. What DNS and Page Rules combo should I configure in order to serve all the URLs ONLY over https without www?
Based on this answer here, I tried changing my DNS settings but it didn't work. And I can't get my head around Cloudflare Page Rules.
In order to accomplish this you should create two Page Rules. One that redirects all traffic to https, and another that directs all www traffic to the root domain.
You can find directions for these Page Rules on this KB article (they are the first two). Or there is a video tutorial as well. If you are already maxed out on Page Rules there is also an option now to purchase additional rules without changing plans.
(I'm from Cloudflare)
On a Drupal 6 site we can't figure out why pages, other than the home page, refuse to be accessed in https. Accessing any page on the site, except the home page, immediately redirects back to itself at http.
Apache is correctly setup with a valid SSL certificate.
I'm certain its not the .htaccess file. There's no rewrite rules regarding https or port 443.
I added $conf['https'] = TRUE; to the settings.php
I installed the Secure Page module and configured it to secure the page we want, but it causes a redirection loop ending in a browser error.
No other modules that I can see relate to http vs. https
I can't find any admin settings regarding the base URL that would force this behavior.
I have a lot of experience with server admin, LAMP software, and a little with Drupal, but this one has me stumped. Any hints or suggestions would help me a lot.
Check to see if base url in settings.php is set to the http address. This can cause this behavior.
