 * HELP!
    My website [http://www.biteandchewfoodreviews.com](http://www.biteandchewfoodreviews.com),
   whenever I go to Wp-Admin, gives me a security error. and brings me to “prowerestlingreviews.
   com” instead, and prompts me to login to THAT website, via wordpress.org.
 * My site is hosted by Bluehost, and it linked via Jetpack.
 * Also, photos are not displaying at all on my site.
 * What I did right before this happened. It went to settings, and changed “[http://www.biteandchewfoodreviews.com&#8221](http://www.biteandchewfoodreviews.com&#8221);
   to “[https://Biteandchewfoodreviews.com&#8221](https://Biteandchewfoodreviews.com&#8221);
   
   as per this website article -https://yoast.com/wordpress-seo/
 * How do I STOP this from giving me a security error, and STOP this from trying
   to get me to log in to a website I have never heard of?!
 * EDIT: When I click on the images on my website, it BRINGS ME TO THAT PERSONS 
   SITE [https://biteandchewfoodreviews.com/lays-potato-chips/](https://biteandchewfoodreviews.com/lays-potato-chips/)

 * Do you have an SSL certificate for the site?
 * If you do, seems like the certificate is not applied correctly.
 * If not, switch back to HTTP

 * I have one now. I accidently changed “Http” to “https” on my site admin settings.
   
   I now have a cert, and I am told it will take 4 hours to propagate.
 * Will my articles and images “re-direct” themselves once the cert activates? or
   do I need to fix the entire site 🙁

 * It seems as if you’re trying to force https on your domain, but your ssl certificate
   is outdated and issued for that other domain.
    And there are links to that other
   domain on your site.
 * If your page is on https, but the included images are linked as http, then browsers
   won’t load those images!
 * Your server may have been hacked, so:

 * You’ll need to fix all links to images site-wide. Won’t happen automatically.
   
   1. Change the base URL for media files in the settings. This will make new media
   files get correct address directly. 2. (After doing backup): Do a “Better search&
   replace” for all image links and other site internal links on the site. 3. There’s
   a plugin that can automatically filter for http links to the same web site and
   make them https. But it will only filter the content of posts and pages.
