It sometimes loads as https, and other times it doesn’t. It goes back and forth, especially the home page. My website is perfectionmaideasy. com * I have already changed the site and wordpress url in wordpress. I have https plugin installed. It was working before but I think I messed it up when I installed another plugin called “404 to start” wordpress plugin. Here is my htaccess, if it will help. * please help me if you can! thank you so much * ``` # To set your custom php.ini, add the following line to this file: # suphp_configpath /home/yourusername/path/to/php.ini #
