HTTPS

With the new version of WordPress, do you need to do anything other than change the General Settings to reflect https://www.yourdomian.com in order for all web browsers to load a website as https and not http? Beyond purchasing and having the certificate installed.

And just FYI, I moved this site using Backup Buddy…which I’m sure most of you know it allows you to change the site’s URL when installing.

Right clicking and looking at the source code, I see that some plugins still have show http, and theme files. The site loads with https in mozilla, but not in chrome, safari or explorer.

And yes, the site owner wants the entire site secure.

And how can I be 100% sure that search engines are only indexing https, and not http as well?

I tried forcing https using .htaccess. Maybe I have something wrong here…

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.hcis.md/$1 [R,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

But I get this error when trying to load the page:

Chrome: This webpage has a redirect loop

Mozilla:

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Help, anyone? Thanks.
