stops working (if not logged in) after 4.9.5 update?

  • I have two identical wordpress servers behind a load balancer. Updating to WP 4.9.5 broke a few things, and required me to change my wp config settings from

    define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
define('WP_HOME', 'https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);

    to

    define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
define('WP_HOME', 'https://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);

    as well as make some nginx adjustments so I could use multiple domains as before. But then I started having an odd problem with the SSL insecure content fixer plugin.

    1. IF I am logged in, the site looks fine and all content is secure
    2. IF I am NOT logged in, the site will load but completely misformatted with errors about mixed content. No matter what setting I use in the plugin, the result is the same.

    Smells like a caching problem. Have you cleared your page cache? Does the problem return if you logout and access pages on http first instead of https?

    Are you perhaps running W3 Total Cache? That plugin is notorious for stuffing up things like https. You will need to refer to their FAQs and support forums if so… or switch to something easier to configure and less likely to break.
