[Plugin: WordPress HTTPS (SSL)] Update, redirect issue

I reverted back to a previous version and it cleared up… Just a heads up.

I just installed version 2 and had the same problem as foodiggity. I need the ability to view the frontend of the site as an admin while using shared SSL so I won’t revert back to the older version.

Upon activation I get kicked out of admin and taken to the login page, but after entering my username and password I just get redirected back to the login page. This happens the instant I activate version 2, even after deleting the old directory from my server.

Just wanted to let you know. If there’s something I can do to fix this, please tell me!

Hey foodiggity,

Oh I’m sure it does. 2.0 has a lot of changes in it, so I expect some things to act funky. But, I didn’t mean to make it the default download on the plugin page and have since reverted it back to 1.9.2.

Could either (or both) of you let me take a look at the plugin installed on your site so I can see what’s causing issues? It would really help me get 2.0 officially released. If you’d like you can email an admin login to mike[at]mvied[dot]com. I promise not to break anything. ??

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

I just set you up with a login to my site; you should have been emailed about it. However, 2.0 is no longer available through wp.org (I think?) and I don’t have a local copy. If you can get it installed through the plugin interface then go for it, or you can email it to me and I’ll upload it. erin[at]erincasteel[dot]com.

If 2.0 keeps affecting the login I can only test it through Monday evening; after that I have to let the users back in!

thanks so much,
erin.

Hey ecclescake,

Does the account have the ability to edit plugins? I’ll need that to modify the plugin to try out some fixes.

Thanks,
Mike

Yes, you’ll be able to edit the plugin. Let me know how it goes!

Thanks Mike!

Hey ecclescake,

Something odd is happening with the plugin editor in the admin panel. Any time I try to edit a plugin, it redirects to the site’s home page (even without WordPress HTTPS activated). I think a plugin or something is messing it up.

Thanks,
Mike

Whoops! Sorry about that. Forgot about my firewall. You should be good now.
