Remember how there used to be http web address, now it is https (secure)? And why is that?

First of all, have an idea that….https is necessary on every websites. Because our http websites are not sufficient enough for our visitors personal data protection. Particularly when Cookie Policy Reminder Blocks was implemented in Europe and then expanded to the USA, Canada and other nations, the protection of personal data has dropped the requirement list.

Hence the websites which still have the url with http or should implement the https as soon as possible. That said, there are some caveats about moving funds this way. Because if we make this move bad, all of our indexed pages in search engines will go down in ranking and even be treated as duplicated content. But how do we get there, and how do we deal with any potential server issues? So this is the gist of my article.

We will search for the plugin and install it from the WordPress dashboard first, to do that follow these steps: After that, to convert your http connections to https, just ring your having firm to ask for SSL installation. The SSL needs to be installed, and that costs money, and the hosting authorities will do the installation. If you are using SSL, you can skip this step. When this setup is done, we are ready to convert all http connections to https.

Next navigate to the Admin panel, and open the Settings/General. Append S to https in WordPress address (URL) and Site address text boxes and save the changes. This will redirect all http links to https instead Your site may be closed for some time (up to 1hour) when your do this step, Don’t worry! That’s because your DNS entries aren’t updated yet. However, your website that you cannot access through your computer is open for new visitors. So you should wait a bit. If it still does not open then you need to call your hosting and explain your issue, they will resolve it in no time only Stay password protected but be careful and also Make your Host your Friend.

Simple Redirect with SSL in WordPress

Such glitches are common in the Hosting firms who are based in Turkey. I do not want to give them a bit of advertisement by naming them. I’m not going to go to long on this, going back to if you have some good foreign hosting provider such as Hostgator then you will definitely not face any issue.

You did http->https make your site work However, take heed, we are not finished yet. And why?

Hello Friends you able to run your web browser using the URL and add your website as http or https. This means regardless your pages will show up. Worst case scenario: we don’t want this to happen. The reason we do this is; we add a URL that starts with http, we redirect to the address https. This way we will remove all http entries. That is to say, we will offer the most complete version of secure web browsing to users. The sad part is that this is not automated in the WordPress panel. Simply put, we have done this for this same plugin already. So to resolve this let’s begin with opening the settings of the plugin.

This adds a Redirection button to the admin page, just above the Appearance tab in the menu. Hold this button and directly access the settings. The plugin includes 4 setting tabs. So, some things that we can do, in order.

Settings of All in One Redirection plugin

Redirection:

This tab is a tool providing for the redirection of 404 pages that will not open. Now, to redirect, we have to choose 301 in the Redirection Type box (which will by default already be selected.) In the Source URL box enter the old and non working URL to redirect In the Destination URL box, The new URL,that the URL of the page that should be opened after redirectionmust be entered. Leave the Regular Expression box empty. Now, hit the Add Redirection button to save the redirection after all the settings.

Redirection settings:

This is where the real settings for this plugin take place. Access Enable Host and WWW options and click on it That would then enable these settings. The option will automatically show here from your existing stake with the plugin. However, do remember to verify the setting is correct! Change Host Setting to https If you are using www then you should also choose your WWW Settings. As in 2013download. com… Choose the Non WWW if you are not using www. That’s everything in this section with settings.

404 pages list:

That setting then opens the page that lists the 404 links. In simple terms, it contains an inventory of links you have removed from your site/links not on your site. In short, all the bad pages on your site are listed here. Here you can Right a 301 Redirect to fix the bad URLs. To achieve this activate the plus sign(s) in the Action column and specify the page to be redirected to and click OK. Eventually, the number of errors here will decrease over time as you finish these redirects. The last of the tabs is useful tools.

Tools:

Here on this settings page, you are able to back up the default plugin settings along with the redirect list to your own computer. It is also possible to restore previously backed-up data to the system here. That is all there is to these settings.

Even if they upload an http link, your site URL will now redirect to https after you complete the settings of All In One Redirection plugin. Additionally, after you set the setting with or without www then the redirection will also automatically be corrected as per your setting. This plugin is not very famous plugin in WordPress and I think it is very useful. Even the most used (Really Simple SSL) doesn’t solve this issue, but with this simple plugin we have a great solution. If you have any queries regarding the plugin, feel free to contact me. This will be up to you to use the comments section for that.
