Title: Redirects to broken https Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Redirects to broken https * [DavidVinLA](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidvinla/) * (@davidvinla) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/) * Ever since the 4.2.3 update, my login page redirects to a broken https page. Also, the www-version of my site is doing the same. The non-www version works fine.

I’m about to try downgrading one to 4.2.2 to see if that solves the issue for now. * Thread Starter [DavidVinLA](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidvinla/) * (@davidvinla) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/#post-6358331) * Let me know if that ends up working for you.

Most likely candidate is WooCommerce. * Make sure to clear your cache, before trying to log back in on the original browser. * This worked for me. Now I can use the website normally (and it displays with CSS and all!) in Chrome. * What I know so far: Google Chrome and probably Firefox, as of the latest update, are redirecting many if not all websites to the https version. In order to use a commerce-related plugin, you need an SSL certificate anyway. Maybe the latest update to WordPress re-activated WooCommerce, or it might have been activated all along, and Chrome/Firefox are suddenly force-redirecting all websites with these identifiers. * Here’s where I got the hint: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-wp-admin-page-is-getting-a-privacy-error-in-chrome](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-wp-admin-page-is-getting-a-privacy-error-in-chrome) * [PRI Info](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pri-info/) * (@pri-info) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/#post-6358350) * Oh, and here’s the thread that gave me this hint: * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-wp-admin-page-is-getting-a-privacy-error-in-chrome](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-wp-admin-page-is-getting-a-privacy-error-in-chrome) * [oakridgebbq](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oakridgebbq/) * (@oakridgebbq) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/#post-6358359) * Same issue. Disabling WooCommerce at-least lets the site load the CSS but doesnt solve the https redirect issue. We are down until a patch is released!

The suspect version of chrome, Version 44.0.2403.89, was released yesterday, yet these problems didnt arise until after the wordpress 4.2.3 auto update which was applied this morning. * Thread Starter [DavidVinLA](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidvinla/) * (@davidvinla) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/#post-6358390) * Ok I was able to access the site just fine and login using Safari.

But as it solved another bug come to life, and now my chrome doesn’t remember my passwords anymore, but this is offtopic. * [mikealc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikealc/) * (@mikealc) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirects-to-broken-https/#post-6358416) * I’m having the same problem.
