Hey Richard,
It’s kind of impossible for me to know without additional information. It sounds like something (an AJAX call or a JavaScript file) isn’t loading properly.
- Download Google Chrome.
- Open the page you’re having trouble with in Google Chrome.
- Open the Developer Tools. How to access the Developer Tools.
- Click on the Console tab.
Look for any errors in the console that may indicate a problem. If there are any, copy and paste them here.
Thanks,
Mike
I have the same problem. I’m using Hostmonster’s shared SSL. The admin area is SSL redirected and the main site is not, which is what I want. However, the Visual Editor shows plain HTML.
Hey Richard (and Chad),
I’m thinking this is just a bug in 1.9.2. 2.0 is pretty much ready to release, but I’m waiting on feedback from a few testers before I push it up. If you want, you can try 2.0 and see if you still have the same problem. http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wordpress-https.2.0.zip
Note: This version is in debug mode which will add some JavaScript to the bottom of your site that outputs debug information to the browser’s console. You can disable it by setting the $debug variable to false.
Let me know if it works or not.
Thanks,
Mike
As soon as I activate version 2.0, Firefox shows a server not found error. The page that’s trying to load is
https://~optimwis//~optimwis/secure.hostmonster.com/~optimwis/~optimwis/wp-admin/plugins.php?action=activate&plugin=wordpress-https%2Fwordpress-https.php&_wpnonce=8e3e1de5ad
I can try 1.9.2 with other settings, if you’d like. What should my settings look like for shared SSL? I really only care about the login page being encrypted; I don’t even need the whole admin area encrypted, but it’d be nice.
Hey Chad,
You pretty much always want Internal HTTPS Elements, External HTTPS Elements, and Disable Automatic HTTPS to be on. For securing the admin panel you’d want Force Shared SSL Admin to be on.
Is there any way I could test a bug fix for 2.0 on your server? It’s really strange that it’s doing that.
Thanks,
Mike
I’ll try those settings with 1.9.2. Sure, I can find time to test 2.0; just provide instructions.
Hey Chad,
Really, I won’t be able to devise a fix without logging in myself. If you could create a user for mike[at]mvied[dot]com that has permission to edit plugins, I should be able to fix it pretty easily.
Thanks,
Mike
Hi Mvied,
I’m having the same issue with this plugin being used with the latest version on WP and TwentyEleven based template.
I’ve uploaded version 2 and it also breaks the visual editor in the latest version of Chrome.
Thanks
Hey all,
Still working on this issue. I’ve been a bit busy lately. Just wanted to let you know I’m still here. 😛
Thanks,
Mike
