Problem accessing site after update to version 8.0

It tries to redirect https.

Hello @shvb2007,

I’m sorry you’re running into trouble accessing your site. Do you remember if you had the SSL module enabled before upgrading to 8.0? And if so, whether you had the “Require SSL” setting enabled?

To get back into your site, you’ll want to Edit your wp-config.php file and add the following code to it.

define('ITSEC_DISABLE_MODULES', true);

Right before the line that says /* That's all, stop editing. Happy Blogging */.

You’ll also want to remove the line that says define( 'FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true );.

From that point, you should be able to access the admin area of your website, and deactivate the “Enforce SSL” feature from the Features page.

I did nothing. But the problem goes away. I don’t know what’s happened. Thanks anyway.

May be occurred because of cloudflare caching system? I thought this because it gone OK after few hours.

Ah, yeah I think there may be a point at which iThemes Security tries to redirect you to https during the upgrade process which could be picked up by a caching system.

We’re working on a fix for that upgrade redirect.

@shvb2007 If you log into iThemes Security now, do you see a Feature called “Enforce SSL” under “Features → Utilities”?

Yes, I saw it and it was not checked. After new update to 8.0.1 this option is disappeared.

Now this option appeared again. I think it is because of caching again ?? everything work normally. Thank you for your response.

I’m glad it’s working for you @shvb2007!

Thank you.
