 * Hi, I seem to be able to use sg optimizer only for caching.
 * Frontend optimisation or even enabling https is unable.
    Even though, https is
   already enable on siteground..
 * It will show an error like:
    [https://ibb.co/56bqw1d](https://ibb.co/56bqw1d)
 * [https://ibb.co/5ndL37w](https://ibb.co/5ndL37w)
 * Already update sg optimiser to the latest version.

 * Hey there [@alyab](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alyab/),
 * Most probably the issue is related to an htaccess rule or a security plugin. 
   The exact issue is that the request made from the plugin are redirected and returning
   404, leading to an unsuccessful attempt to populate the options.
 * Kind regards,

 * Hi [@stoyangeorgiev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stoyangeorgiev/) ,
 * I read that WP Front Notification Bar plugin might cause the error so I deactivated
   it but the error still persist.
 * Since I can’t enable https via sg optimizer, I used Really Simple SSL plugin 
   to enforce it. Could this be the issue because of the htaccess rule written?
 * If so, which option do you recommend when deactivating Really Simple SSL plugin:
   
   [https://ibb.co/wzCXP8b](https://ibb.co/wzCXP8b) for testing purposes?
 * Not sure if this is related but I also use redirection plugin by John Godley
 * Thanks.

 * Hey there [@alyab](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alyab/),
 * You can try to disable the redirection plugin and monitor the behavior of our
   plugin.
 * If that does not work, I would suggest disabling the SSL plugin, reverting to
   the default htaccess settings, and try to activate the Enforce HTTPS through 
   the SiteGround Optimizer plugin.
 * Make sure that your SSL Certificate is valid. I would also suggest making a backup
   before changing your settings, so you can easily revert to the working settings.
 * If you still have issues after that, feel free to reach back to us.
 * Kind regards,
    Stoyan
