 * Adding HTTPS to my site and my login page doesn’t allow me to log in. Just says,“
   Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”
 * I’ve tried the suggestions from [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-admin-sorry-you-are-not-allowed-to-access-this-page?replies=4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-admin-sorry-you-are-not-allowed-to-access-this-page?replies=4)
   but still nothing.

 * What is the URL of your site, and how exactly did you set everything up for HTTPS?

    I’ve completely wiped
   WordPress and re-installed it as I think there was issues with the database. 
   I’m having to wait 10 minutes for the phpMyAdmin tables to update properly at
   the moment. Just having problems with mixed content warnings on the admin area.

 * Ok, it doesn’t look like you setup HTTPS properly.
 * Please review [https://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/web-publishing/https-for-wordpress/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/web-publishing/https-for-wordpress/)
   for details.

 * I’ve tried that solution but when changing URL to https in the General settings
   under Options I get an infinite loop redirect as I think it’s clashing with CloudFlare’s
   Flexible SSL. Then I also can’t get into the admin at all and I had to reset 
   through phpMyAdmin.

 * See if there’s any improvement if you try that with Cloudflare’s protocol rewriting
   switched off.

 * Installed the plugin CloudFlare Flexible SSL with an awkwardly unformatted admin
   area and it fixed the issue. Going to go through the plugin & see what files 
   are added / amended and post it back here for others. Thanks for the help & quick
   responses though!
