 * Hi René !
 * I have sent an email to your team but I thought my question could also be of 
   some interest for for other people.
 * I just switched my blog to https and I haven’t seen a change in my counts. It
   still displays all the shares. However, I am wondering if your plugin does support
   both http and https? How does it work exactly? Am I going to get new shares on
   top of the old ones or no more shares for older blog posts?
 * Thanks!

 * Hello [@puda](https://wordpress.org/support/users/puda/)
 * Please try not to send us the same questions on different channels. This doubles
   the time we have to spent for support and the less time we have for developing
   mashshare;-(
 * To your question:
 * After switching to https you need to enable the https option in mashshare general
   settings. So shares of http and https are counted together and you will not have
   any loose in shares. If you do not switch this option shares are incrementing
   at the moment where new shares for https exceeds the old http sharecount which
   is cached and stored in the database.
 * Btw. If you something usefull for other mashshare user feel free to post it here.
   You can mark it than as “not a support question”
 * Have a great day:-)

 * René,
 * Just double checked this option and it says thats this option is mandatory if
   you don’t want to lose the shares. However I have never lost any of the shares
   since I switched over to HTTPS and your box also says that I should not activate
   this option if I still see all my shares.
 * What would you say then?

 * As long as you do not purge the mashshare cache the old share count will not 
   get lost. Thats correct but the opposite is true as well so i recommend to enable
   the https option;)
