Problem solved.

Edit: Its RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mysite.com/$1 [R,L]

Hey, thank you for the response!

I am not willing to do that step

No problem!

I once messed around with the htaccess file but I cant find that code-snipped in it.

The General Settings are set without www. When I add the www-prefix the site is not available anymore and I have to change it back in the db entries manually.

%% ===========

If this is a personal site and you do not care about getting website visitors/visitor traffic then this is ok, but if you actually want visitor traffic then probably most people will leave your site when they see the warning and will not accept the certificate.

You are probably right but this is a personal page primely for people who know me. I am not willing to spend any money for a certificate (exaggerated: for nothing) and with the only free source I found, I would have to renew it every month. On that base I stick to a self-signed one.

P.p.s.: To the link problem (just when its related to https):

Hey,

I’m sorry for the late response but it has been a busy week…

Thank you for your response but that is not the problem. I know it is a self-signed certificate – I don’t want to spend money for that – but the problem is strangely just related to the header image.

I think it must be something with the domains…

To reproduce the problem, do the following (do it in chromium: other than firefox, it shows an empty image frame):

• Go to stephanmonecke.de
• Accept the certificate –> page is being displayed except for the header image.
• Open just the header image in a separate tab
• accept the certificate AGAIN
• then the full page is being shown properly

The problem is that I have to manually accept the certificate again in order to display the page properly. I can do that easily but not users who have no idea of software and I couldnt get it to work on a mobile device.

I don’t know whether this is related to it but I noticed that the
add html-link pop-up window has no buttons which is uncomfortable…

Thanks in advance for any help!

%% =========

P.s.: I just noticed that the image is stored at:
https://stephanmonecke.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/copy-cropped-cropped-bg.jpg

But when you open it over the page the link is with www:

https://www.stephanmonecke.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/copy-cropped-cropped-bg.jpg

Then you have to accept the certificate and are being redirected to:

https://stephanmonecke.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/copy-cropped-cropped-bg.jpg

\ó.ò/

Thank you for your answer! But that code does not seem to work.

There is no output although I set up the number of news to display. :/

I just checked it again and now it seems to work properly! ??

In the meantime I updated several things including the WordPress-installation. Maybe there had been something in conflict…

I’m sorry for bothering you!

Thank you for your suggestions!

Strange. When I enter the page the first time, I have to accept the certificate. And the page loads without the header image (also https in source code). When I open the image directly, I have to accept the certificate again and since then the image appears on the page.

Is this some kind of certification problem?

Btw. the page is https://stephanmonecke.de/

The solution vanished with the deletion of Full URL path to files with WordPress 3.5! ??

My header-image is also broken using ssl.

It concerns every OpenSSL implementation. Therefore also wordpress and nearly every other ssl-secured page.

Thats why Bruce Schneier said: “Catastrophic is the right word. On the scale of 1 to 10, this is an 11.”

Indeed I’m using BPS. ?? Good to know – thank you! But Ill stick with the workaround now. ??

Thank you very much mferris77!
Although the additional options are not working for me (and it didn’t display the pictures), with your code and some minor fixes (the description vanished behind the next picture) I hardcoded it and it works like a charm now!

But the RSS feed gives a description. Is there a way to take this instead? ?? Thank you in advance!
