Connection not Private

  • Hey Jerry,

    Are you trying to access it with “https” in the URL?

    In your wp-config.php file do you see code referencing SSL towards the top of the file? If so, can you remove it and see if that helps?

    If you deactivate the plugin via FTP by renaming it’s directory to better-wp-security.bak does that resolve the issue?

    Thanks,

    Gerroald

    Hi Gerroald

    Success!

    Thank you for taking the time to respond Gerroald.

    I edited the wp-config.php files as you suggested and it worked! Here is the code I removed:

    //The entries below were created by iThemes Security to enforce SSL
    define( ‘FORCE_SSL_LOGIN’, false );
    define( ‘FORCE_SSL_ADMIN’, false );

    Thanks again and hopefully I can return the favor some day.

    Sincerely,

    Jerry

    Make sure to untick the Force SSL for Dashboard setting (and then save) in the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) section of the iTSec plugin Settings page. Otherwise the issue might come back after saving settings in the iTSec plugin.
    (This setting corresponds with the FORCE_SSL_ADMIN line in the wp-config.php file).

    Since the FORCE_SSL_LOGIN constant is deprecated as of WP 4.0 the corresponding setting in the iTSec plugin (Force SSL for Login) has been removed in the 4.8 release.
