 * Hi there,
 * I was working on my website and noticed that i could not enforce https since 
   the site would go down (giving the message too many redirections). I asked my
   hosting party Siteground what was wrong. They advised me to turn off all plugins
   on wordpress and see what the result was. Well the enforcement worked, so I started
   to put all the plugins on agian, one after one.
 * However, it seems that lifterlms was causing this error. I do want to use the
   software but how can i run it without getting this problem?

 * Do you have the FORCE SSL setting enabled in LifterLMS -> Checkout?
 * If you have other SSL plugins installed or if your host is redirecting your site
   via a custom method (and your site’s url in the general settings is not set to
   [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-lifter-lms-pluging-caused-redirecting-https-problems/?output_format=md))
   you could see redirect loops caused by the force ssl setting.
 * Try turning that setting off and see if it fixes the issue.
 * Here’s docs on how to manage the setting: [https://lifterlms.com/docs/ssl-and-https/#loops](https://lifterlms.com/docs/ssl-and-https/#loops)
 * FYI This setting is designed to allow you to have most of your site NOT use SSL
   but special pages (like the dashboard a checkout) force SSL. So when you’re already
   forcing an SSL redirect and forcing it again via LifterLMS it ends up causing
   redirect loops like this.
 * Let me know if this helps,

 * Thank you Thomas,
 * Is seems that disable the SSL in the checkout cures the problem!

 * Same issue as joey. Thomas Patrick Levy (@thomasplevy) top man. Thank you very
   much. I had already configured SSL via my provider. Switched of force SSL and
   all is good. Thanks.
 * I guess I need to test to pieces the payment gateway, but I was going to do that
   anyway :0) Again, thanks Thomas much appreciated. Regards RichFM
