Title: XML/XHTML validation error Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # XML/XHTML validation error * [db434](https://wordpress.org/support/users/db434/) * (@db434) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/html-validation-error-4/) * The plugin is over aggressive and incorrectly rewrites the following line of code required by XHTML/XML 1.0: * This causes a validation error since only the non-https version of that URL is permitted. Please include the option to whitelist links which should not be rewritten by the plugin. Either that or update the plugin to not rewrite these types of links which are required and part of the XHTML/XML standard. * Thanks for writing a great plugin that is helping to secure the web. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/) The topic ‘XML/XHTML validation error’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/wordpress-https_bec2c9.svg) * [WordPress HTTPS (SSL)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-https/reviews/) ## Tags * [ignore](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/ignore/) * [validation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/validation/) * 0 replies * 1 participant * Last reply from: [db434](https://wordpress.org/support/users/db434/) * Last activity: [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/html-validation-error-4/) * Status: not resolved
