 * Hey Jeff.
 * Love your plugin; is unique and a true breakthrough, and I’ve used it since you
   launched it on the WordPress repository.
 * Quick question. On my SSL sites, I know you added the “Ignore URL Protocol” feature
   a year or so ago, so of course I enable it.
 * Nevertheless, it doesn’t seem to work on any of my SSL’d sites. Basically, it
   still adheres to the global plugins, and not the plugins I disable on a particular
   page or post.
 * So plugins I have globally disabled that I only want enabled on a page or two
   aren’t being enabled on that page or two; they adhere to the global settings.
 * Interestingly, while they don’t work on individual pages/posts, they do work 
   in my plugin filters (such as a fully widgetized homepage).
 * I know you’re busy, Jeff, but any suggestions to remedy this issue — or at least
   ideas that could get me going in the right direction — would be greatly appreciated!
 * Thanks again for your great work, time, and effort!

 * Check that … for whatever reason, when I have **Ignore URL Protocol** set to **
   disable**, that seems to work for now (after doing the steps in he above thread).
 * However, I had to go to pages and resave the page / purge website cache to get
   the changes to display properly on the front-end.
 * This might be because I use the [WordPress HTTPS](http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-https/)
   plugin, and there might be some type of thing with that — not a conflict, but
   some type of reason I should have Enable URL Protocol set to disable.
 * This is kind of the opposite of what I think you intended for your plugin, Jeff,
   but perhaps there’s an issue if you’re using WordPress HTTPS.
 * I’ll follow up in this thread if I figure anything more out, and maybe you can
   note it in the FAQs or documentation for future reference, as WordPress HTTPS
   is a pretty popular plugin for SSL’d sites.

 * You said you had to “purge website cache”. Are you using a caching plugin?

 * Hey Jeff.
 * Yes, I use W3 Total Cache on domains hosted on a VPS, most of the time. Additionally,
   on some domains, I use CloudFlare … I try to be cautious not to “over-cache”,
   so to speak, or cache too aggressively.
 * Strange, though … for some reason, I’m still having issues on this SSL domain.
   Plugin Organizer is working better than it was w/ the **Ignore URL Protocol**
   set to disabled, but with some plugins, it seems to resort to the global settings.
 * Still haven’t completely figured this one out!

 * I think a lot of my problem had to do with the installation of the [Root Relative URLs](https://wordpress.org/plugins/root-relative-urls/)
   plugin.
 * I went to WordPress general settings, and changed my WordPress Address & Site
   Address from http:// to [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-ssl-1/?output_format=md).
 * I then just saved my WordPress general permalinks 3 or 4 times, then went into
   Plugin Organizer’s settings and recreated those permalinks from [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)
   to [https://www.example.com](https://www.example.com).
 * Then, I changed the **Ignore URL Protocol** to enable, which is I believe how
   you intended for this function to operate.
 * From there, I just tested, and disabled a plugin globally that I only want enabled
   on one page. I went to that page, and things worked.
 * So I believe all issues are resolved, and working as you intended PO to work 
   with SSL sites.
 * Thanks, Jeff, and if I can be of any assistance in helping you with anything,
   just let me know!

 * There have been other users having problems with W3 Total Cache. Seems to not
   respect when something is changed in the order and loading of different plugins.
