# [Plugin: Admin SSL] Odd Redirecting Issue with Shared SSL

 * This seems like it should work as others aren’t having problems, but sadly I 
   am. In fact, this issue just seems odd.
 * Here’s step-by-step of what I did (Admin SSL is already activated):
    – Logged
   into Administration – Clicked “Plugins” – Clicked “Admin SSL” – Checked “SECURE
   MY SITE WITH SSL” – Checked “USE SHARED SSL” – Entered my URL (ex. [https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.com/wp-admin/](https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.com/wp-admin/))–
   Added “wp-admin/” to “Additional URLs”. – Clicked “Save Changes”
 * After doing all of this, the strange stuff starts happening. When clicking on
   a link, I’m redirected to “[https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.comadmin/&#8221](https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.comadmin/&#8221);(
   notice it drops the “/wp-” portion of the URL).
 * To test this further, I reset Admin SSL and decided to not add “wp-admin/” to“
   Additional URLs” and see if I could access the login page securely. When attempting
   to log out of the Admin to log back in, once again, I’m redirected to a improper
   address of “[https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.comlogin.php/?action=logout&#8221](https://ssl.hosting.com/mysite.comlogin.php/?action=logout&#8221);.
 * Through both methods, it appears the “/wp-” portion of the URL keeps getting 
   dropped. Now, my install of WordPress is at the root and not in a subdirectly(
   like “/blog”). I’m not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I’m sure 
   it’s a detail that’s needed to be known.
 * Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

 * Hi Travis
 * If you follow the reset instructions on the website, and it still doesn’t work
   correctly, then try enabling the debug mode (instructions on the FAQ page), and
   email me the log file (address on the contact page of my website), which will
   help me determine the cause of the problem.
