Hi @muresancristian,
Thank you for using Really Simple SSL.
I have visited your site and noticed that currently no valid SSL certificate is installed. If you click ‘activate SSL’ without an installed SSL certificate, the plugin redirects all visitors to https, while no https version of your site exists.
Please make sure that you have installed SSL prior to activating SSL on your site. You can do this either by activating SSL via your hosting dashboard (most hosting providers will provide you with SSL for free), or by generating a free Let’s Encrypt certificate with Really Simple SSL. Please refer to this article for more information about the subject.
After installing the certificate, you can activate SSL using Really Simple SSL!
Let us know if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
Leon
I just want to completely remove it. It crashed my site and I could not access it anymore. So I manually deleted the plugin. Now only the home page works. The other links are broken. I want to know where does it made changes, maybe in the database and how do I reverse them back to the old settings. I don’t have a control panel, it is my personal VPS that runs ubuntu server and I only have SSH to control it.
Hi @muresancristian,
Did you try the ‘revert to http’ option?
That should revert any changes made by Really Simple SSL.
Regards,
Leon
How do I revert to http when I can’t even access my website’s backend ?!
It doesn’t make any changes in the database, other then setting your home url to https.
Re-saving the permalinks might help, to ensure the links are flushed in WordPress.
Please follow this article for manual deactivation:
