I installed my SSL and my host site shows:
\nInstalled. DNS Update Completed
\nYour SSL certificate has been installed on your domain.
\nCongratulations!
\nYour IP address is:
\nxxx.xxxx.xxx
\nYour secure URL is:
\nhttps:\/\/testsite.ca<\/em><\/p>\n

I changed the names in Settings – General to https:\/\/ and it I got CFN#0005 and the site wouldn’t work. Because I couldn’t get into wp-admin anymore I had to go into my config file and force it with:
\ndefine(‘WP_HOME’,’http:\/\/testsite.ca’);
\ndefine(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http:\/\/testsite.ca’);
\nNow it worked and I could get back into my admin but the names in Settings – General are now greyed out and I can’t change anything. If I take out the ‘define’ code in congig.php I go back to getting CFN#0005.
\nIt’s a total mess and I’m so frustrated.<\/p>\n

I’m not showing actual domain because last time I did that on here my client got tons of spam saying they saw their post on a forum and could help them. If you think you can help I will message you the domain.
\nThank you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-12721990","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-config-php","topic-tag-https","topic-tag-ssl"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12721990","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12721990\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12721990"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
