 * Using latest version of WP and the plugin. We cannot delete any connections –
   the ajax call in the admin doesn’t seem to do anything, it just sits there after
   clicking the delete icon.

 * Here is our setup code:
 *     ```
       p2p_register_connection_type( array(
       		'id' => 'procedures-locations',
       		'from' => 'procedures',
       		'to' => 'locations',
       		'cardinality' => 'one-to-many',
       		'sortable' => 'any'
       	) );
       ```

 * We have the WordPress HTTPS plugin setup and have the admin under SSL – this 
   appears to be the issue. Need to update the plugin to work under SSL!

 * No JS errors actually, so maybe that isn’t the issue. No clue at this point.

 * Those do not look like the AJAX requests made by P2P. They’re XML instead of 
   JSON.
 * Are you sure the AJAX url is correct? What’s being sent and what’s being received?

 * I opened up Firebug, showing the console and clicked the delete icon in the admin
   area. This is the result: [https://skitch.com/sccr410/8kpa1/firebug-edit-procedure-imaging-healthcare-wordpress](https://skitch.com/sccr410/8kpa1/firebug-edit-procedure-imaging-healthcare-wordpress)
 * It is a P2P request based on the parameters in the URL.

 * Well, I set up a similar connection type and everything works fine.
 * Try disabling SSL temporarily.
 * Also, does it work in the previous version of P2P (1.1.5)?

 * It did not work on 1.1.5. Unfortunately we have to run the entire thing under
   SSL on this dev URL just because of server setup and we need the SSL for other
   aspects of the site. I suppose we will have to wait until the site is on the 
   live domain to verify this bug.

 * Wait, the AJAX url starts with `http://`, not `https://`, even though P2P uses
   the native `ajaxurl` variable in JS.
 * Maybe the request is blocked since it’s not over SSL.

 * I have no idea change the AJAX URL to https – would this be a bug in the WordPress
   HTTPS plugin or P2P?

 * “WordPress HTTPS plugin” ?
 * As a quick test, just set it temporarily through the Firebug console:
 *     ```
       ajaxurl = 'https://...'
       ```
   
 * and then check if deleting works.

 * Yep, that worked. So is it the SSL plugin’s fault for not changing that URL or
   P2P’s?
 * This is the SSL plugin: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-https/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-https/)

 * I guess so, since `ajaxurl` is defined by WP, and simply used by P2P.
 * I added the ‘wordpress-https’ tag to this topic, so the author should see it.

 * Hi scribu,
 * I have the same problem with deleting connected posts but only with one specific
   conection type. I have a day post type and connected to day are events and clsses.
   Classes I can add and delete without any problem but Events connections are not
   being deleted.
 *     ```
       p2p_register_connection_type( array(
         	'name' => 'day_to_events',
         	'from' => 'day',
         	'to' => 'events',
         	'reciprocal' => true,
         	'sortable' => 'order',
         	'context' => 'advanced',
           'title' => array( 'from' => 'Add Events to this day', 'to' => 'Add to Schedule' ),
   
           'fields' => array()
         ));
   
       	p2p_register_connection_type( array(
       		'name' => 'days_to_classes',
       		'from' => 'day',
       		'to' => 'competition',
       		'reciprocal' => true,
       		'sortable' => 'order',
       		'context' => 'advanced',
           'title' => array( 'from' => 'Add Classes to this day', 'to' => 'Add to Schedule' ),
   
           'fields' => array()
       ));
       ```
   
 * All other connections I have throughout the site are working fine. Just the day_to_events
   one doesn’t work on deleting the connection.
    Firebug console gave me this: [http://d.pr/Jm8](http://d.pr/Jm8)
 * Any ideas?
