 * Hi,
 * I hope you can help me with this problem.
 * I have SSL installed.
 * When I enter URLs in the browser (with the exception of Google Chrome), for example:
   
   odedbenami.com/consultation odedbenami.com/disclaimer
 * It automatically becomes preceded with an http instead of https. If I manually
   change this to https, it will change without trouble. However, I’m unable to 
   effect the initial addition from http to https.
 * My WordPress settings > General
    are as follows:
 * WordPress Address (URL):
    [https://odedbenami.com/wordpress](https://odedbenami.com/wordpress)
 * Site Address (URL):
    [https://odedbenami.com](https://odedbenami.com)
 * As you can see, they are both with https.
 * Can anyone help me?
 *  ~ Oded Ben-Ami

 * Let’s try reversing the order of the rules, putting the SSL directives at the
   top. It seems like the rewrites may be stepping on each other.
 *     ```
       Options +FollowSymLinks
   
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
       RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
   
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
