Title: move from http to https Last modified: November 24, 2016 --- # move from http to https * Resolved [Milad Nasri](https://wordpress.org/support/users/miladnasri/) * (@miladnasri) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/) * I want to change the protocol of my website from HTTP to HTTPS. Can I just run this plugin by finding [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com) replacing with [https://www.example.com](https://www.example.com) Is it enough? * Another question… Does changing the guid cells make any problem other than its effect on the feed ([mentioned here](https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL#Important_GUID_Note))?

What I need to do for convert my site from http to https? * finding [http://example.com](http://example.com) replacing with [https://example.com](https://example.com) * Also in convenient to do the following: * finding [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com) replacing with [https://example.com](https://example.com) * When I do that, do I also need select all the tables into the windows? * Is it enough doning that? * And the other questio: do I need mark the REMPLACE GUID box? * Thanks for your support - This reply was modified 9 years, 5 months ago by [giuseppecuttone](https://wordpress.org/support/users/giuseppecuttone/). * Plugin Contributor [Matt Shaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattshaw/) * (@mattshaw) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/#post-8525196) * Yes, replacing “[http://example.com”](http://example.com”); with “[https://example.com”](https://example.com”); on all tables should be enough to convert to HTTPS. You will want to take a backup of the database beforehand in case you need to revert. * If the site has been live before, you likely shouldn’t replace the GUIDs, but if the site is a development site or very low traffic, it should be fine to replace the GUIDs. * While this is for the pro version, the documentation has more information that also applies to the free version: [https://bettersearchreplace.com/doc/running-a-search-replace/](https://bettersearchreplace.com/doc/running-a-search-replace/) - This reply was modified 9 years, 5 months ago by [Matt Shaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattshaw/). * [giuseppecuttone](https://wordpress.org/support/users/giuseppecuttone/) * (@giuseppecuttone) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/#post-8528025) * Hi [@mattshaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mattshaw/) Thanks for your reply. I am working in my site. It is public (it is not in local server), but it is a site with very low trafic. I have replaced “http://example.com” with “ https://example.com” in all tables and now https run well (is showed the “Green Padlock”). But I have not select the GUIDs option. So my question is: even if is showed “Green Padlock”, do you suggest me return to replace “http://example. com” with “https://example.com” and also mark the GUIDs option? Or maybe, considering that the web are showing the “Green Padlock” so, it is not needed return to do replacing and marking GUIDs option? * Let me know * [alemarengo84](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alemarengo84/) * (@alemarengo84) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/#post-8560522) * Is it possible to do that using free version of plugin? * [fercam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fercam/) * (@fercam) * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/#post-8694522) * Hi i really need you help, I installed the plugin because I have the issue ” The page at [https://example.com/](https://example.com/) was not allowed to run insecure content from [http://example.com/wp-content/cache/minify/8c185.css.”](http://example.com/wp-content/cache/minify/8c185.css.”); * To replace the calls from http, I ran, even now it says that there is no replaces left nd 0 cells were found that need to be updated. * But change the misdirection … I mean before … the specific url example.com/page1 had the problem after run the plugin example.com/page1 was ok but example.com/ page2 start to “run insecure” I dont know what happened * the URL wecayo.com/tienda * Could you please help me ? * Thanks forward Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) The topic ‘move from http to https’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/better-search-replace/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2706527) * [Better Search Replace](https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/better-search-replace/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/better-search-replace/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/better-search-replace/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/better-search-replace/reviews/) * 5 replies * 5 participants * Last reply from: [fercam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fercam/) * Last activity: [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/move-from-http-to-https/#post-8694522) * Status: resolved
