new site no ssl

  • Hi there, i’ve got a multisite running with wildcard ssl and everything is running smooth, except one thing:
    When i make a new site by visiting https://new-name-of-site.example.com i can fill in the credentials of the new site and accept. So far so good.

    When i log in as an superadmin in the admin < sites area i see that the new site is https:// .
    Is there a setting to make new sites as https i overlooked?

  • Two things:

    1. Force SSL on Admin:

    2. Update the URL settings in WordPress. Add the HTTPS part

    Thanks for your response, but I already enabled define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, true); in wp-config. Your step 2, update the settings, is what I want to happen automatically for every new site created by a registered user.

    So a registered user creates a new site by visiting https://new-site.example.com.

    After that I visit as super-admin the super admin area < sites and there I want to automagically see https://new-site.example.com.

    In the meantime I try the “SSL insecure content fixer” plugin. It will hang another ball on my Christmas tree of plugins ??

    Hello sanderswp,

    Could you share please how do you activate your https in your wordpress multisite installation. I have been reading some instructions but anything has been said about multisite’s installations. So I’m looking for some experiences in order to be sure of how can I proceed.

    I read that we have to modify .htaccess and wp-config. I just wonder if the “rewriting” rules that are used to activate multisite could be affected by using the rewriting rules that are used to activate https. In the same way, I wonder if the DEFINE CURRENT SITE and the DEFINE URL (etc) could create contradictions.
