 * I removed the SSL cert from the site. The site still forwards to https giving
   404 error on wp-admin. I rename SSF’s folder via ftp. i can login in again. I
   uninstall SSF, delete the three database tables, reinstall SSF and activate. 
   Again it goes to https and 404 error. I hope this is clear.
    How can I remove
   this setting (or reset SSF) so it would redirect the site to https. Thanks for
   an awesome plugin.

 * Heya,
 * I’m really unsure how the SSF is forcing it to https… that’s quite odd.
 * To reset the plugin, follow this little guide:

 * I’d be interested to hear if this fixes the problem… a very odd problem altogether.

 * That worked. Yes, it’s bizarre. I will investigate further and post if I find
   something. Thanks for your prompt reply.

 * Maybe I set “Forces WordPress Admin Dashboard To Be Delivered Over SSL” or “Forces
   Login Form To Be Submitted Over SSL”. I can’t remember, but this is the only 
   thing I may have set.
