Title: HTTPS Blubrry redirect Last modified: October 5, 2017 --- # HTTPS Blubrry redirect * [Ken Gagne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kgagne/) * (@kgagne) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/) * For one of my podcasts, the link to download the MP3 is redirected through [http://media.blubrry.com/](http://media.blubrry.com/); on another site, it’s [https://media.blubrry.com/](https://media.blubrry.com/). I don’t see a difference in my sites’ configurations that would cause one to be HTTP and another to be HTTPS; under PowerPress “Services & Stats”, both sites are using an HTTP URL for “Redirect URL 1”. How do I make PowerPress switch from HTTP to HTTPS? * -Ken Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * Plugin Support [Shawn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnogordo/) * (@shawnogordo) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9560860) * There’s no setting in PowerPress that does this. Usually, if an entire site is using https, then the media link will automatically come up as https. - This reply was modified 8 years, 8 months ago by [Shawn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnogordo/). * Thread Starter [Ken Gagne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kgagne/) * (@kgagne) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9562929) * Thanks! My two podcast sites are with different hosts, and I’m working to consolidate them. I’ll see if that eliminates whatever the variable is. * Thread Starter [Ken Gagne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kgagne/) * (@kgagne) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9566257) * Hmm. I moved my site to a new host and configured its new SSL certificate — but the download link for my MP3s is still HTTP, even though the rest of the site is HTTPS. Here’s an example: * [https://www.gamebits.net/2015/07/15/indiesider-26-leadlight-gamma/](https://www.gamebits.net/2015/07/15/indiesider-26-leadlight-gamma/) * Which links to: * [audio src="http://media.blubrry.com/indiesider/s/gamebits.wpengine.com/wp-content/ uploads/podcast/is26-leadlight_gamma.mp3" /] * Any idea what I can do to change that link and force it to be secure? * -Ken * Plugin Support [Shawn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shawnogordo/) * (@shawnogordo) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9569823) * Run the Find & Replace Tool within PowerPress so it changes [http://media.blubrry.com/](http://media.blubrry.com/) to [https://media.blubrry.com/](https://media.blubrry.com/) * Thread Starter [Ken Gagne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kgagne/) * (@kgagne) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9569834) * That worked.

Hopefully my comment will get approved and give you additional info on other search and replace plugins you can use. * Thanks, Angelo * Thread Starter [Ken Gagne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kgagne/) * (@kgagne) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9570060) * Thanks, Angelo! * After executing Shawn’s suggestion, I used BackupBuddy’s server tools to do a more thorough sweep for related changes. I think I’m good now! * Plugin Contributor [Angelo Mandato](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amandato/) * (@amandato) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9570393) * Hello Ken, * Sounds good! The only other detail in my reply, avoid changing the value in the GUID column of the posts table. Doing so will cause issues for folks who are subscribed, mainly re-detecting all of your episodes as new, and also loosing any episode specific rankings you built over time on iTunes. * Thanks, Angelo * Plugin Contributor [Angelo Mandato](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amandato/) * (@amandato) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9579497) * Hello Ken, * If you are hosting your podcast on blubrry podcast hosting, you do not have to do anything but check a checkbox, * You have 2 basic options: * 1. Edit each post manually and update the media URLs in the blog posts and in the Podcast Episode box. If you have less than 100 episodes, I would recommend doing this as you can ‘verify’ every media URL to make sure it is still iTunes compliant on the new host. * 2. Use tools to programatically replace the media URLs. * If you only use PowerPress, then you can go to the PowerPress > Tools menu and select the “Find and Replace Media URLs” tool. It will first let you enter partial URLs and replacement partial URLs, it will replace the portion that it finds with what you specify. You can simply enter “[http://”](http://”); and “[https://”](https://”); to make the switch. In step 2 it will list all of the episodes that will be updated and at the bottom there is a checkbox that is already checked to verify the URLs. Please keep this checked. It may take a little while once you click submit, but it is worth checking every URL. * If you also placed media URLs into your blog post content, then you can use a tool such as the [Search & Replace](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-and-replace/) or [Better Search Replace](https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/) plugins. I have used the first one many times with success. I recommend backing up your site database before running any of these tools. One word of caution, make sure you do not modify the GUID column when converting URLs to https, doing so will cause iTunes to think there are new episodes as well as loose episode ratings on itunes. * Thanks, Angelo Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘HTTPS Blubrry redirect’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/powerpress/assets/icon.svg?rev=2849869) * [PowerPress Podcasting plugin by Blubrry](https://wordpress.org/plugins/powerpress/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/powerpress/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/powerpress/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/powerpress/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/powerpress/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/powerpress/reviews/) ## Tags * [HTTPS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/https/) * [SSL](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/ssl/) * 9 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Angelo Mandato](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amandato/) * Last activity: [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-blubrry-redirect/#post-9579497) * Status: not resolved
