I found the thread:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/article/changing-the-site-url/#changing-the-url-directly-in-the-database
and followed the ‘phpMyAdmin’ instructions to change the ‘site url’ and ‘home’ values from “https” to “http”.
I have done this*, but the site still still asks for “Sign in” credentials.
* and cleared the apache cache … and tries again several hrs later, and on different devices ;(
Where/what should I do next?
NB the host is lcn.com who (I think) provide multi-site WordPress – so (I think) FTP access/changes will not work (please confirm)
Thanks
Wondering if anyone can help me?
My website occasionally shows the green SSL padlock and sometimes doesn’t. More often it shows up in Firefox but not Chrome.
According to whynopadlock, there are 2 issues.
1) “Force HTTPS”: I’ve installed the plugins: SSL Insecure Content Fixer & WordPress Force HTTPS yesterday and it solved it yesterday, but it isn’t working 60% of the time today.
2) “Protocols” You currently have TLSv1 enabled. This version of TLS is being phased out. This warning won’t break your padlock
So I assume number 2 isn’t a problem.
I’ve deleted cache and done control F5 when testing my website.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Pulling my hair out here trying to figure this out!
]]>I started by following this tutorial on setting up an SSL. I changed my URL in the settings>general menu to “https://ap.mywebsite.com” but upon reloading the page I was locked out. I received the error
“The requested URL /wp-admin/options-general.php was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at ap.bpwgroup.com Port 1918″
I have changed settings in my NGINX and Apache settings (Nginx proxys to Apache) and I have two other websites on the same server that work with the SSL flawlessly. I was even able to get my wordpress URL to redirect to a different secured site. I was following this tutorial when I added the following line (line 4) to my Nginx config
server {
listen 80;
server_name yoast.com www.yoast.com;
return 301 https://yoast.com$request_uri;
}
I inadvertently forgot to remove the yoast.com from that code and replace it with my website. When I tried to visit my page it redirected me to yoast.com. So the redirect appears to be working.
Any ideas on what to try next?
Thanks,
