 * Yes, whenever I try to convert my site to SSL, the WP-Admin page creates a redirect
   loop, I’ve tried everything mentioned here: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL](https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL)
   but still, everytime I try to use HTTPS, again the redirect loop.
 * PS: HSTS by CF works but enabling HTTPS manually in Settings by converting URL
   to https:// makes a redirect loop, please help 🙁

 * The installation and use of a valid SSL cert is something you need to work with
   your web host on. That said, prior to doing so, make sure any server cache is
   off.

 * I am sorry, could you please explain the issue better? I do not understand what“
   Won’t the cert. provided by CF work?” is referring to or means.

 * When we integrate CloudFlare with our site, it provides us with a free SSL option.

 * Please ask your host about this. WordPress.org is not CloudFlare.
