# [Plugin: WordPress HTTPS] WordPress HTTPS breaks WordPress redirect to www

 * As you know, WordPress autoredirects to the domain defined in the General Settings.
 * E.g. If I set my site to [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com) when
   I setup wordpress, then whenever someone types [http://example.com](http://example.com),
   it auto redirects to [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)
 * With WordPress HTTPS plugin, this is no longer the case. It no longer redirects
   like it should.
 * I have tried just about every setting, as well as disabling all other plugins
   to be sure.
 * I know I could use a custom rule in my htaccess, but that defeats the purpose
   a bit, and easier to accidently break the site (conflict with wordpress settings).
   The need to auto redirect is pretty important for many search robots.
 * If needed, I could donate a bit even to get this fixed asap.

 * This is disabled in an attempt to minimize the redirect loop issues that are 
   pretty common with WordPress and SSL.
 * In the next version of WordPress HTTPS (1.8), this functionality is only disabled
   if you are using Shared SSL, as the redirect issues are most common there.
 * I’ll be pushing out version 1.8 today, and I will update this topic when I do.
   Then, you can give it a try and let me know if it fixes your issue.
 * Thanks for downloading! 🙂

 * Just upgraded but it did not fix the problem. Is this only going to force www.?
   my default URL leaves out the www. I need it to redirect all [http://www.’s](http://www.’s)
   to my URL without www
 * but I’m assuming it should be forcing the default URL format as set in wordpress?
   That doesn’t seem to be happening.
 * Thanks

 * Well, that would be because I goofed on the update. Uno momento as I push out
   1.8.1, lol.

 * Okay, sorry about that guys. 1.8.1 just got pushed out so it should show up shortly.
   Let me know!
