Title: HTTPS stopped working without reason Last modified: August 31, 2016 --- # HTTPS stopped working without reason * Resolved [salajm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salajm/) * (@salajm) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/) * Hi, * please help me with strange problem. I have woocommerce e-shop that has SSL certificate and WordPress is set to [https://site.url](https://site.url). Everything worked fine for months. Today I saw that https:// pages are bad rendered – all scripts and css have urls that begin with http:// so they are blocked by browser. Links to other pages are correct – [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/?output_format=md). Second problem – I cannot login to wp-admin, browser returned error – too many redirects. I tried everything – disable all plugins, set the default theme, revert WordPress to older version because yesterday automatically updated to new version. Nothing helped. Please help me, I don’t know what happened… * Michal Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * [justinwhall](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwind/) * (@jwind) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/#post-7024771) * WC uses the WP function is_ssl() to redirect insecure pages. This can cause a redirect loop in some cases. Did you install another plugin? * Check if the “Force Secure Checkout” is checked here: WooCommerce > Settings > Checkout tab. Does unchecking that fix it? * Thread Starter [salajm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salajm/) * (@salajm) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/#post-7024774) * No, I didn’t install a plugin.

It’s clearly a WordPress issue, redirects are only when I am using /wp-admin/, the site is working (with limitations that scripts and css files are loaded with http:// so they are blocked) * [justinwhall](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jwind/) * (@jwind) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/#post-7024782) * What’s your .htaccess file look like? * Thread Starter [salajm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/salajm/) * (@salajm) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/#post-7024783) * # BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!- d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] * # END WordPress * [kmessinger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kmessinger/) * (@kmessinger) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-stopped-working-without-reason/#post-7024785) * This is why. * > The webpage at [https://www.michalsalaj.sk/wp-admin/](https://www.michalsalaj.sk/wp-admin/) > has resulted in too many redirects.
