Problems with SSL

    Hey Jeff.

    Love your plugin; is unique and a true breakthrough, and I’ve used it since you launched it on the WordPress repository.

    Quick question. On my SSL sites, I know you added the “Ignore URL Protocol” feature a year or so ago, so of course I enable it.

    Nevertheless, it doesn’t seem to work on any of my SSL’d sites. Basically, it still adheres to the global plugins, and not the plugins I disable on a particular page or post.

    So plugins I have globally disabled that I only want enabled on a page or two aren’t being enabled on that page or two; they adhere to the global settings.

    Interestingly, while they don’t work on individual pages/posts, they do work in my plugin filters (such as a fully widgetized homepage).

    I know you’re busy, Jeff, but any suggestions to remedy this issue — or at least ideas that could get me going in the right direction — would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks again for your great work, time, and effort!

    Check that … for whatever reason, when I have Ignore URL Protocol set to disable, that seems to work for now (after doing the steps in he above thread).

    However, I had to go to pages and resave the page / purge website cache to get the changes to display properly on the front-end.

    This might be because I use the WordPress HTTPS plugin, and there might be some type of thing with that — not a conflict, but some type of reason I should have Enable URL Protocol set to disable.

    This is kind of the opposite of what I think you intended for your plugin, Jeff, but perhaps there’s an issue if you’re using WordPress HTTPS.

    I’ll follow up in this thread if I figure anything more out, and maybe you can note it in the FAQs or documentation for future reference, as WordPress HTTPS is a pretty popular plugin for SSL’d sites.

    You said you had to “purge website cache”. Are you using a caching plugin?

    Hey Jeff.

    Yes, I use W3 Total Cache on domains hosted on a VPS, most of the time. Additionally, on some domains, I use CloudFlare … I try to be cautious not to “over-cache”, so to speak, or cache too aggressively.

    Strange, though … for some reason, I’m still having issues on this SSL domain. Plugin Organizer is working better than it was w/ the Ignore URL Protocol set to disabled, but with some plugins, it seems to resort to the global settings.

    Still haven’t completely figured this one out!

    I think a lot of my problem had to do with the installation of the Root Relative URLs plugin.

    I went to WordPress general settings, and changed my WordPress Address & Site Address from http:// to https://.

    I then just saved my WordPress general permalinks 3 or 4 times, then went into Plugin Organizer’s settings and recreated those permalinks from http://www.example.com to https://www.example.com.

    Then, I changed the Ignore URL Protocol to enable, which is I believe how you intended for this function to operate.

    From there, I just tested, and disabled a plugin globally that I only want enabled on one page. I went to that page, and things worked.

    So I believe all issues are resolved, and working as you intended PO to work with SSL sites.

    Thanks, Jeff, and if I can be of any assistance in helping you with anything, just let me know!

    There have been other users having problems with W3 Total Cache. Seems to not respect when something is changed in the order and loading of different plugins.
