I followed the information in this manual and created an advanced filter. I can see Full Page URL. But I have a problem with this external link icon.
In Behavior > Site Content > All Pages
All external links are incorrect:
example.com > example.comexample.com
example.com/contact > example.comexample.com/contact
blog.example.com > example.comblog.example.com
example.com/about > example.comexample.com/about
Is there any way to correct this? Or am I doing something wrong?
That is a drawback of the URL Rewrite filter. It does not involve anything in tracking, only that functionality of opening the page through that icon cannot be used. This is because in the Analytics view settings you can indicate only one domain and that is what Analytics automatically appends to the URL when you click on that icon.

I created a development site in a sub-folder. I changed the site url and base url of the site but the custom links in the menu section is not picking the new base url. it is still picking the old path. can some one help me.
I believe it will change only your domains URL but you need to change all links follow instructions below:
First method
1. login to admin-end go to setting general setting
2. change your old website URL into home tab
3. change your old website site URL from site tab then same it.
Go to setting permalinks set default then save again change it to post name and then save.
Second Method
1. Open your PHPMyAdmin select your database
2. Open the table wp_options.
3. Change the site URL and admin URL from old to new.
Go to setting permalinks set default then save again change it to post name and then save.

Could you help me find out what to do with not fully secure message.
I have installed ssl certificate from let's encrypt, but my wordpress homepage has a message "Attackers might be able to see the images you're looking at on this site and trick you by modifying them".
The home page is still in development, with demo content. About what images chrome notification is telling? Something to do with cookies?
Thank you for your answers!
Edit: Does it have to do with the theme itself? Whole wordpress dashboard and login is served over proper secure ssl.
Sending images via http protocol is what triggers this issue. Using any content from a cdn that does not use https will also trigger this issue. This quote explains it pretty simply (the yellow padlock / warning of unencrypted content/images):
If a yellow padlock appears with a mini yield sign, the likely cause
is links in your site still refer to an unsecured page. Make sure that
all your images, menu items and links use https in the URL.

I would use a tool to help identify all non-encrypted file transports. One such tool would be something like Why No Padlock.
Did you enable https after installing WordPress? If so, you must change the WordPress address and Site Address under "General Settings" in WordPress. Make sure both addresses use https.
If your WordPress site address is set to use http, your server will force https but WordPress will serve certain images, like the favicon, over http. This triggers a "mixed content" warning.
I too had run into this issue. It appears there are many http: that need to be replaced with https:
You typically do this using a plugin called Better Search and Replace. Make sure you are adding colon (:) at the end of both http and https.
I found a working answer here
To check for issues on the chrome/opera inspection console (ctrl+shift+C) is also a great idea: I had setup all correctly and the issue was the footer image, not something you would check very often looking for this fix. I had applied SSL to many websites, sometimes the issue is just one simple link and this method helps find it.
I had the same problem where the home or index page was saying the page was not fully secure "Attackers might be able to see images blah blah blah"
After enabling https in general settings under site address and wordpress address I was still getting the insecure image warning on the index or home page.
The next step was to find out what images were not using the https ref on the index or home page.
In my case I viewed the page source of the page, by right mouse clicking the page in the chrome browser & looking for images url ref which were still showing http. I was using a sliding header and those images were showing http. So all I did was go into slider header in the appearance menu of the wordpress, and re-assign each of the header slider image for each frame. RE-checked the home page now the image urls were showing https. Bingo the secure lock symbol returned.
Obviously these image urls don't get updated via the general settings... which seems an oversight by whoever wrote the part of the word-press script.
I have created a wordpress page, which have now been indexed by google. When searching for it using google I realized that the url which was indexed contains https and not http. This leads to a warning when I try to use the search result to go to the page.
How can I disable the https for my webpage part which contains the content? I still want to use https for wp-admin.
Or is there another way to avoid google to index the https url?
I checked the canonical in html and it is http, as following:
My client wants to change his Wordpress site's domain name (from info.safetyalert.com
to safetyalert.com).
On the server there are two directories: info.safetyalert.com
(where the user is redirected when they type www.safetyalert.com into browser) and
safetyalert.com, which contains the old site which is not rendered with the exception of a login.asp page for customers that directs them to a "non-Wordpress" portal for submitting reports which is in turn linked to a database (you can see the Login link at the upper right hand corner when accessing the Wordpress home page).
My question is: In which files would I need to edit to make safetyalert.com permanent (and not changing to info.safetyalert.com in the address bar) when users goto the Wordpress site, but without affecting/crashing the login.asp page and the database in the other directory?
My previous attempts have resulted in a loop. I can provide additional info if needed. Any help is greatly appreciated!
login to admin panel of http://info.safetyalert.com/, and go to Settings > General, then change the URL (ie from http://info.safetyalert.com/ to http://www.safetyalert.com ), then you problem is solved.
I have setup my site with 5 pages which are my menu options.
When running my WordPress site on my local host using MAMP, my url is:
http://localhost:8888/mySite/ or http://www.example.com/ (when I go live)
When I click on a menu item, it changes the URL to:
http://localhost:8888/mySite/MenuOptionA or http://www.example.com/mySite/MenuOptionA
How can I setup a Permalink or something else, so that it always just shows my main URL above without the /MenuOptionA when I have click on any menu options?
I basically would like my url to always just show http://www.example.com/ no matter what menu option is selected.
You can change you're site's url easily by adding in the following statements into wp-config.php
define('WP_HOME','http://www.mySite.com/');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://www.mySite.com/');
If you don't want to maintain two different config files, you can put a conditional in there to determine what value to use.
