 * Hi
 * I add this
    define(‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, true); if ($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’]
   == ‘https’) $_SERVER[‘HTTPS’]=’on’; to wp config I have also tried wordpress 
   Https plugin the only way that works if I use the the force page. but if enable
   admin on this plugin it goes into a loop.
 * thanks

 * I would actually edit the site in the DB and change http to http for that domain.

 * You only need the first line to make the admin SSL
    `define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN',
   true);` Are you using a domain mapping plugin? If so remove the remote login 
   checkbox. (Has solved problem for me in the past)

 * That does it for ALL domains though, HuddersfieldH
 * I did it on my store – [http://halfelf.org/2014/ssl-for-one-domain-on-multisite/](http://halfelf.org/2014/ssl-for-one-domain-on-multisite/)–
   but it’s not as obvious as all that.
