Title: SSL error: internal link is showing https://https//https:// in front Last modified: November 27, 2018 --- # SSL error: internal link is showing https://https//https:// in front * Resolved [Olawale Daniel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coolcash4live/) * (@coolcash4live) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-error-internal-link-is-showing-https-https-https-in-front/) * Good morning, * I have been having this error for the past few days now. I first thought it was a single page until I discovered that it is a sitewide issue. * All INTERNAL LINKS on my site is showing **[https://https//https://](https://https//https://) in front of the URL** instead of direct link. Please check the link below. * For example: [https://allianceinmotionnigeria.com/registration] interlinks to[ https://https//https://allianceinmotionnigeria.com/shop/] thereby making the links not accessible. I have tried to removed all plugins but nothing is working. * NB: In some instances, it will show it like this [https://www.https://https://%5BWEBSITE](https://www.https://https://%5BWEBSITE) ADDRESS] * I once used an SSL plugin to change my site from http to HTTPS but I discovered that the site is not forcing people to secured version, so I used Really Simple SSL plugin to do that according to a guide I read online. * Please I am newbie, please guide me on where to go and what to do in order for the link to go to the right page without those long [https://https://https://](https://https://https://) in front of the site link. * Thank you for your help. * ps: I tried to avoid linking because I don’t want to sound spamming. I urgently needed help and please and please, help me. Thank you so much. * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fssl-error-internal-link-is-showing-https-https-https-in-front%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-error-internal-link-is-showing-https-https-https-in-front/#post-10922816) * You should be able to fix those links with [https://wordpress.org/plugins/velvet-blues-update-urls/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/velvet-blues-update-urls/) * Thread Starter [Olawale Daniel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coolcash4live/) * (@coolcash4live) * [7 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ssl-error-internal-link-is-showing-https-https-https-in-front/#post-10922933) * Thanks James.
