 * Ok, so 2 things.
    First is I had enabled the Force SSL Administration But I had
   to turn it off since I could no longer update my “Custom Contact Forms” plugin
   since it was giving an error due to their programming not allowing it the admin
   area to function on SSL… (lame when people dont have the forethought to program
   correctly, oh well)
 * So, after disabling the Force SSL Admin my admin is still forwarding to https.
   
   I used the reset button, added define(‘WPHTTPS_RESET’, true); to my wp-config,
   hit the pages on the main site and went to [http://MySite/wp-admin](http://MySite/wp-admin)
   and it auto forwards to the https, but then the redirect shows http. So to login
   I have to login, remove the redirect from the address bar and press enter again
   to get into the site.
 * 2)
    The second thing is the page I have set to Force SSL when the Force SSL Exclusively
   was on was not forcing. and on pages that did not have it set that are child 
   pages, such as; [http://MySite.dom/Parent/child-page](http://MySite.dom/Parent/child-page)
   it was removing the seperating slash, like this; [http://MySite.dom/Parentchild-page](http://MySite.dom/Parentchild-page)
 * I hope this helps, I would be willing to help you test anything as well or supply
   you with my contact info if I can be of help.
 * I love your plugin & hope that the bug fixxes go well on your new release!
    Thank
   You For All Your Hard Work and Making WP Better with your work!

 * Hey Rob,
 * Can you just provide some links? Sorry, it’s easier for me to just witness what’s
   going on. If you don’t want to post them publicly you can email me at mike[at]
   mvied[dot]com.
 * Thanks,
    Mike
