https and css

Ok, thank you to both of you.

I did that and I don’t know if it works or not because I’m falling into a problem I’ve already seen before and is probably at a higher level. Actually, my wordpress server is not the same than my nginx one (please find my config at the end of this message). Then, when I switch into HTTPS and I try to connect (https://mariage.herisson-soula.fr/wp-login.php), I am forwarded to https://mywordpress.local/wp-login.php, which fails.

Thank you for your help,
Joan

## nginx.conf ##
…

    server {
        listen 443 ssl;
        server_name mariage.herisson-soula.fr;

        ssl on;
        ssl_certificate XXX;
        ssl_certificate_key XXX;
        add_header XXX;
        ...

        location / {
                proxy_pass      http://mywordpress.local;
        }

   }

Hi there,

the problem of infinite redirections is solved just by adding the following lines in nginx.conf:

map $http_x_forwarded_proto $thescheme {
default $scheme;
https https;
}
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $thescheme;

The following instruction already there in the wp-config.php do the trick:

if (isset($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’]) && $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’] === ‘https’) {
$_SERVER[‘HTTPS’] = ‘on’;
}

No need to add extra “define(anythingelse)” nor modify database URLs.

Best,
Joan
