Skip to content link breaks themes

    Good Day,

    I have a new WordPress site and somehow found my way into this state. My site is https://www.godsmessageontheweb.com. I can’t seem to find my way around it. I’m using the twenty fifteen theme.

    I found the line in the header.php that causes this to display. If someone could show me how to hide that with CSS, it seems like the best place from all of the threads on the issue I have read.

    I have some .htaccess files to post, just in case re-writes are killing me, I have my suspicions.

    https://imgur.com/a/WzTv2 is my .htaccess files. The top is in public, the second in wp-config. I had to enter by hand and maybe I created my own issue?

    Any help is appreciated. ?? Thanks.

    OK, I’m not sure I can explain how I fixed this but I’ll give it the old college try. I left the SSL certificate on my server, and deleted all the wordpress files. I reinstalled from scratch via command line.

    After the re-install everything worked except my admin Panel. I then disabled my 1 plugin wordpress-https. Then I went to my host setup panel and turned off force everything to ssl. Then I was able to get into the admin panel and then re-enabled wordpress-https. The ONLY thing I did this time was next to the first entry labled SSL host which had my site name beginning only with www the box next to it was blank for the port. I put 443 in there and saved and everything came back. I don’t think it defaults to 443, you have to type it in the box and save it. I decided to leave force SSL off and went back to my site control and had everything from http: forwarded to https:

    All seems well now.

    In short, allow your site to do the forwarding, but also activate the wordpress-https plugin and put in 443 next to your site name. That did it for me.
