Admin URL is now SSL but website is not. I tried different browsers and its the same. * I wondered if you could help?

I think it is an issue that it is not compatible with 4.0 wordpress * [Khürt Williams](https://wordpress.org/support/users/khurtwilliams/) * (@khurtwilliams) * [11 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254327) * I think this is my issue as well. My site is [http://islandinthenet.com](http://islandinthenet.com) * When I change the site URL to [https://islandinthenet.com/](https://islandinthenet.com/) and enable Force SSL Administration and Force SSL Exclusively all pages use SSL. However, while I can access all admin pages, regular posts and pages give a 404 error. * Do existing posts need to be “republished” to use this plug-in? * [Devprolabs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/devprolabs/) * (@devprolabs) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254339) * me too. I can access in Admin but not url web. cant connected * [parelles](https://wordpress.org/support/users/parelles/) * (@parelles) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254347) * Hi, yes i’m having the same issue too. Certificate is installed, no website https but control panel gives intermittent https. Tried to specify forward slash in the URL filters box but plugin alters from ‘/’ to \’/\’ * Help please as this is going to become more of an issue as people upgrade to WP 4.0. * [http://www.walking-holiday-in-spain.com](http://walking-holidays-in-spain.com) * [jamessh1990](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessh1990/) * (@jamessh1990) * [11 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254348) * I’m experiencing the same problem.

Over two months and not one response from support as to a fix, yeap I made the right decision by not installing just yet! ** I uderstand it’s a free version but most people including myself try out the free version before paying for a pro version! Just thought I’d mention that becasue if I do see support is active i normally purchase the pro vesion… I hope you guys find a fix for this. * Thanks Fish * [SystemRevolution](https://wordpress.org/support/users/systemrevolution/) * (@systemrevolution) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254353) * You can try the same solution I posted in [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirect-error-10?replies=2#post-6235138](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirect-error-10?replies=2#post-6235138)( and avoid a possible loop in your site) Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) The topic ‘HTTPS working in admin but not on website URL’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/wordpress-https_bec2c9.svg) * [WordPress HTTPS (SSL)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/reviews/) * 11 replies * 9 participants * Last reply from: [SystemRevolution](https://wordpress.org/support/users/systemrevolution/) * Last activity: [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-working-in-admin-but-not-on-website-url/#post-5254353) * Status: not resolved
