Description
A simple, safe, and reliable way to force HTTP URLs to HTTPS dynamically:
No setup required – simply activate the plugin to force HTTP URLs to HTTPS.
There are no plugin settings to adjust, and no changes are made to your WordPress configuration.
SIGNIFICANTLY FASTER than other popular plugins of this type:
Other well known plugins use PHP’s output buffer to search & replace URLs in the rendered HTML, which is a technique that is error prone and negatively affects caching performance (as changes are not cached).
This plugin uses standard WordPress filters instead of PHP’s output buffer for maximum reliability, performance, caching compatibility, and uses 301 permanent redirects for best SEO results (301 redirects are considered best for SEO when moving from HTTP to HTTPS).
Supports advanced proxy / load-balancing HTTP headers:
X-Forwarded-Proto
(akaHTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO
server value)X-Forwarded-Ssl
(akaHTTP_X_FORWARDED_SSL
server value)
See Web technology for developers > HTTP > HTTP headers > X-Forwarded-Proto for more details.
Plugin Requirements
Your web server must already be configured with an SSL certificate and able to handle HTTPS connections. 😉
