Title: Converts https-links to http-link using IE Last modified: September 3, 2016 --- # Converts https-links to http-link using IE * [Wompa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wompa/) * (@wompa) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/converts-https-links-to-http-link-using-ie/) * I’ve used Cloudflare several months, and it did speed up my page quite a bit. But I had to deactivate this plugin. The reason is that Cloudflare converts all my https-links to http-links. The problem occurs in IE, but not in Chrome, Opera or Firefox. * For several months I’ve tried to have the Cloudflare support team help to fix this, but their support is not very good. I’ve experienced that almost every time their returning to me there is a new person, that I have to explain the problem again. And where the earlier person trying to figure out what is the reason for this, the new person does’nt seem to take this into consideration and really doesn’t care, it seems. I’ve given up to try having this fixed. * The suggestion from Cloudflare support team in the beginning was to use some of their page rules. This did not in any way solve this issue. This very same issue has also been addressed in 2015 as well: * [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cloudflare-plugin-breaks-paypal-add-to-cart-buttons-in-ie-11?replies=5](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cloudflare-plugin-breaks-paypal-add-to-cart-buttons-in-ie-11?replies=5) * I’ve addressed this to Cloudflare support on this thread as well: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-redirects-to-paypal-in-ie-changes-to-http?replies=2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-redirects-to-paypal-in-ie-changes-to-http?replies=2) * with no support at all. * But Cloudflare was not able to solve the problem back then either. I’ve contacted Chad Warner and he said he did’nt even get a respond on his support issue. * The conclusion is that Cloudflare has a problem for all using https-links as well as http-links on a page. Any linking to https pages such as paypal, returns a link to Paypals home page instead of the shopping cart. * Don’t use it if you have any kind of shopping solution on your page.

If you force a redirect to https through htaccess it’s impossible to serve content over http, end of story. * I don’t understand people who give 1 star ratings for this reason; _You_ don’t recommend it because _you_ couldn’t get it to work properly on _your_ website due to _your_ lack of understanding – and let’s not even get started on Intercrap Explorer – so this is a bad plugin and nobody should use it for that reason… Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total) The topic ‘Converts https-links to http-link using IE’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/cloudflare/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2471183) * [Cloudflare](https://wordpress.org/plugins/cloudflare/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/cloudflare/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/cloudflare/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/cloudflare/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/cloudflare/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/cloudflare/reviews/) * 1 reply * 1 participant * Last reply from: [Wompa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wompa/) * Last activity: [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/converts-https-links-to-http-link-using-ie/)
