 * Hi,
 * Many thanks for taking the time to read my WordPress problem.
 * I have run a Site Audit report on Ahrefs, which has highlighted a number of issues
   that I am working through, however I am stuck on the issue of ‘URLs using HTTP
   protocol that redirect to HTTPS’ – issue wording copy below.
 * **_Issue details_**
 * _URLs using HTTP protocol that redirect to HTTPS._
 * **_How to fix_**
 * _It is recommended to use direct links to HTTPS versions of the pages on your
   website to avoid unnecessary redirects._
 *     ```wp-block-code
       URL 301 Moved permanently - http://www.malenis.co.uk/
   
       HTTP status code: 301
   
       Redirect chain URLs: https://malenis.co.uk/
   
       HTTP status code: 200
   
   
   
       URL 301 Moved permanently - http://www.malenis.co.uk/
   
       HTTP status code: 301
   
       Redirect chain URLs: https://malenis.co.uk/ 
   
       HTTP status code: 200
       ```
   
 * Firstly, how do I fix the issue? it only appears to be the homepage that is causing
   an issue, all other pages are not listed.
 * If I do not fix the issue, what is the consequence?
 * Many thanks for your help
 * Malenis.

 * If your site is under https:// then you definitely want to make sure that all
   links under your control are too.
 * They will be redirected, so it’s not a huge problem, but it’s just a nice thing
   to take care of. 🙂
 * Plugins like [https://wordpress.org/plugins/real-time-auto-find-and-replace/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/real-time-auto-find-and-replace/)
   and [https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-and-replace/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-and-replace/)
   can help you find all instances of `http://www.malenis.co.uk/` and replace them
   with `https://malenis.co.uk/`
