 * Having implemented SSL, I am now getting strange messages either when someone
   tries to sign up or if the old http address is used.
 * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started
   at /home/drpushpa/public_html/shiftworkershealth.com/index.php:2) in /home/drpushpa/
   public_html/shiftworkershealth.com/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1167
 * Any idea how to fix this?
 * I have been to line 1167 that is mentioned here, and it says:
 * header(“Location: $location”, true, $status);

 * With regard to the above query, the site is [https://shiftworkershealth.com](https://shiftworkershealth.com)
   and the old address is [http://shiftworkershealth.com](http://shiftworkershealth.com).

 * I just found a helpful article that says:
    If the error message states: Warning:
   Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at/
   path/wp-admin/admin-header.php:8) in /path/wp-admin/post.php on line 569, then
   the problem is at line #8 of admin-header.php, not line #569 of post.php. In 
   this scenario, line #569 of post.php is the victim. It is being affected by the
   excess whitespace at line #8 of admin-header.php.
 * So, in this case, I looked up line 2 of index.php and got this:
 *     ```
       <?php
       /**
        * Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn't do anything, but loads
        * wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
        *
        * @package WordPress
        */
   
       /**
        * Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
        *
        * @var bool
        */
       define('WP_USE_THEMES', true);
   
       /** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
       require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp-blog-header.php' );
       ```
   
 * Can anyone tell me if this is the problem and what I should do about it?
