    You need to update your menu.

    This is the content of the “home” button

    <a href="http://www.stijnspreekt.nl">Home</a>

    As you can see, it’s still pointing to your http domain instead of your new https domain.

    Also, consider adding the appropriate redirects now that you have migrated from http to https.

    That depends on how you want to do it. You can do it through .htaccess or through using a plugin, or in Cloudflare settingss (if that’s what you are using for SSL)

    Ideally, you just want to make sure that if someone visits http://www.stijnspreekt.nl they will automatically be redirected to your https:// domain

    This is a plugin that seems to do the job. I can’t tell for sure as I don’t use it.

    Https Redirection

    You need to read up on it a little bit.

    mmm ok ok. The problem is, i have already 20 plugins active right now. Is that a lot or? I dont wanna have to many plugins, because people say it can slow down your website.

    Let me check the plugin!

    You actually don’t need to use any plugins if you don’t mind writing the redirect rules manually in the .htaccess file

    (Be Very Careful! and make backups before you do anything)

    I wish I can help you further but I can’t because I don’t have enough experience with this and therefore I can not give you any steps, I can point you to the following resources.

    Just make sure you make backups before you do anything.
