 * I just updated to the latest version of HTTPS and started to receive a ‘Too many
   redirects’ error to my site. Could it have anything to do with the update? Thanks.

 * I reverted back to a previous version and it cleared up… Just a heads up.

 * I just installed version 2 and had the same problem as foodiggity. I need the
   ability to view the frontend of the site as an admin while using shared SSL so
   I won’t revert back to the older version.
 * Upon activation I get kicked out of admin and taken to the login page, but after
   entering my username and password I just get redirected back to the login page.
   This happens the instant I activate version 2, even after deleting the old directory
   from my server.
 * Just wanted to let you know. If there’s something I can do to fix this, please
   tell me!

 * Hey foodiggity,
 * Oh I’m sure it does. 2.0 has a lot of changes in it, so I expect some things 
   to act funky. But, I didn’t mean to make it the default download on the plugin
   page and have since reverted it back to 1.9.2.
 * Could either (or both) of you let me take a look at the plugin installed on your
   site so I can see what’s causing issues? It would really help me get 2.0 officially
   released. If you’d like you can email an admin login to mike[at]mvied[dot]com.
   I promise not to break anything. 🙂
 * Thanks,
    Mike

 * Hi Mike,
 * I just set you up with a login to my site; you should have been emailed about
   it. However, 2.0 is no longer available through wp.org (I think?) and I don’t
   have a local copy. If you can get it installed through the plugin interface then
   go for it, or you can email it to me and I’ll upload it. erin[at]erincasteel[
   dot]com.
 * If 2.0 keeps affecting the login I can only test it through Monday evening; after
   that I have to let the users back in!
 * thanks so much,
    erin.

 * Hey ecclescake,
 * Does the account have the ability to edit plugins? I’ll need that to modify the
   plugin to try out some fixes.
 * Thanks,

 * Yes, you’ll be able to edit the plugin. Let me know how it goes!
 * Thanks Mike!

 * Hey ecclescake,
 * Something odd is happening with the plugin editor in the admin panel. Any time
   I try to edit a plugin, it redirects to the site’s home page (even without WordPress
   HTTPS activated). I think a plugin or something is messing it up.
 * Thanks,
    Mike

 * Whoops! Sorry about that. Forgot about my firewall. You should be good now.
