    I run WP with the CommentPress plugin. I have a free “Let’s Encrypt SSL” certificate installed. Yet, any attempt at connecting to my WP site via https reverts to http. The apparent culprit is “mixed content”. I have examined user accessible templates, style sheets and images. None contains an explicit http call. One of the test plugins claimed it was due to a “reverse proxy”, so I threw out DreamFlare.
    In Chrome, I get : “NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID”.
    Is the problem in the server, the proxy, the SSL certificate, WordPress, CommentPress, in the content, or somewhere else?

    In the meantime I found that all links in the <head> as well as media appear with absolute http: uri’s.

    G’day papaworx,

    It sounds like your website certificate doesn’t match your website’s domain name. Can you share the URL to your site so that we can inspect it?

    cheers,
    Ross

    I just took a look, and it all looks good to me in Chrome and Firefox — did you find and fix your problem?

    cheers,

    Yes, the provider had made a mistake with the certificate and fixed it after the fourth attempt yesterday afternoon. Thanks for your help.
