My blog has been accessible via HTTPS for a relatively long time now, but until now the unsecured HTTP version has always been available. This was due to links pointing to http://, which broke the encryption. Various inbound links from other websites also point to http://www.frankysweb.de and not to https://www.frankysweb.de. For this reason, I hesitated for quite a long time to make this site accessible exclusively via HTTPS.
But now I seem to have found a working solution, at least my tests were successful so far...
All links in the WordPress database have been switched from http to https and there is a 301 redirect from http to https using HTACCESS. Previously, there were always problems with WordPress plugins that didn't want to work properly. Keep-Alive is also activated so that the encryption does not have to be constantly renegotiated. This has resulted in a significant speed boost for HTTPS connections.
The downloads now also run via HTTPS. There were also problems here from time to time...
If anyone notices any problems, please send me a short e-mail. If this post should simply disappear again, I probably had to import a backup of the database. This post would then not be included in the backup 
Sieht doch gut aus. SHA256, ordentliche Trusted Root (auch wenn Strato bald zur 1und1 gruppe gehört). Nur rechts unten steht noch „Anzeigen“. da musst du aufpassen, wenn du externe Inhalte einbindest. Die müssen halt dann auch alle HTTPS machen sonst gibt es Warnungen.
Hi Frank,
die Anzeigen werden ebenfalls per HTTPS ausgeliefert, bisher sind keine Mixed Content Warnungen aufgetreten. Ein paar der Anzeigen fliegen aber eh bald raus. Das Strato von 1und1 übernommen ist mir etwas sauer aufgestoßen. Hast du eine gute Alternative?
Gruß, Frank
