 * This plugin is great, but if I use it with my site being on HTTPS, I get an “
   Error, too many redirects” loop.
 * Reverting the site fully back to HTTP fixes the issue.

 * Doing some further troubleshooting, this seems to be a conflict with my webhost
   1and1’s CDN (which is handled by CloudFlare).
 * Any thoughts on why CloudFlare / CDN might cause redirect issues with this?
 * I don’t have any issues with your plugin on HTTP, and I don’t have any issues
   with HTTPS when my CloudFlare CDN is turned on. But for some reason, using all
   three at once causes a “too many redirects” issue with WordPress.

 * Aaaaaand I solved my own problem. Hopefully this is useful to you and/or any 
   users of your plugin in the future 🙂
 * 1and1’s CloudFlare CDN must have the SSL setting on “**Full SSL**” to avoid this
   issue. The default is “Flexible SSL”, which was causing the issues I was having.
   Huzzah!
