Probelms after migration http to https
-
Hi, the theme has problems with https protocol. After migration something in the menu is broken (checked using java console).
I think that it’s because it’s still working with .js, fonts and css from the http version (please note that redirect 301 from http to https works correctly).Will the next theme update fix this?
Thanks a lot,
Loretta

You can make the change to https:// without a plugin.
Most is done when you change General -> Settings -> WordPress Address (URL) & Site Address (URL) to https://yoursite.com
Be careful. This changes the URL for the site. You will lose any SEO juice and Social network stuff (likes, etc..). There is probably a way to save the SEO rank (but I don’t know it).
In case something goes wrong, you can change back to http:// via the wp_Options table using your cPanel -> phpMyAdmin.
After the change you will most likely still have some insecure items remaining, giving mixed content (no green lock) on some of your pages.
The insecure items can come from the wordpress core, your theme, any plugins, links you have added to your content, javascrits etc.. Any item hardcoded with http://.
I don’t want to be negative, but its a lot of work to manually chase down all of the hardcoded links.
I started manually, but eventually gave up and went to a plugin (it was worth it).
