 * Hi,
 * I have bought an ssl certificate from my hosting company. They have enabled it
   and sent me some entries to add the the .htaccess file. I added the entries and
   sure enough it forced the traffic through to https:. Unfortunately the site didn’t
   load. I assume that the url needs to be changed in wordpress settings? I then
   put back the old .htaccess file so that I could access the site but now only 
   the front page loads and it says that it cannot find the urls of the pages in
   the site. Any ideas?

 * You have to adjust the URL in the wordpress settings accordingly. An adjustment
   to the htaccess file is not necessary. WordPress will do everything else for 
   you. There is also an article about this here: [https://wordpress.org/support/article/https-for-wordpress/](https://wordpress.org/support/article/https-for-wordpress/)
