 * Hello,
 * for security reason when people log in i like to use https:// connection,
 * I added the following to wp-config.php:
    `define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);`
 * This makes my site standard http but the admin pages are https as expected
 * HOWEVER. even though i am logged in I get
 * `This has been disabled`
 * The ONLY way to make it work is keep peoples passwords etc on unsecured connection
 * how do I allow it to work on https:// (I’d rather have the disabled message for
   the http version)
 * NOTE: Even when i edit the wp-config.php back to stop the https redirection on
   admin pages, it still blocks me if i add https to any of the login or admin pages–
   how do i fix this as people tend to enter passwords a lot less on sites not secured,
   and no point making the WHOLE site https/ssl when the only part i need is wp-
   admin and the /login/ page!
 * is there any way to do this? (for now ive had to turn off the plugin.. already
   had bots attacking it 14 times in just under 5 mins trying to recreate accounts
   or hack into the “admin” (which is not even an account as i changed it on install)
 * thanks
