    Hello Folks,

    I recently checked the Google Search Console to update some information about the website services and when I got out, I tried to access the website like I normally do it (www.website.com/wordpress/wp-admin), but the search bar had in red “website not secure”.

    Reading a little bit more about it, I noticed that the problem was related to the need of changing the website from http to https.

    Then I accessed the website and changed the wordpress address and the website address to https. I got out and everything looked normal, but then I checked the pages, and I saw the fonts completely different from the previous design. Another thing that I noticed is that the invisible re-captcha function when logging in was not working either.

    I switched back to http (wordpress and the site address) and then checked the font of the pages and were like before.

    Now, do you know why I have this notice (“website not secure”) in the search bar now? Was it because of the information update on the Google Search Console?

    How do I change my website from http to https?

    My wordpress is 4.8.6.

    In advance, thank you for your help and interest.

    You will first have to change your wordpress and site address to https.

    Use a plugin like Really Simple SSL to redirect http to https, this will 301 redirect all current and future http references to https, and keep your site SEO friendly.

    If using the plugin does not fix the font issue, it might be possible that the font links are hard coded by the theme.

    You will have to change links in your theme manually, cause the CSS and js files relevant to font in your theme might be pointing to http. If possible, change urls in theme files to // instead of https://, this will create relative links.

    Note: I had tested https installation on your website and it is properly configured.

    Hey,

    first of all, you need a proper SSL certificate installed on your webserver if you want to use httpS protocol.

    After that you need to change all links from http to httpS (you can use “Search and replace” plugin to get this job done, for example).

    Hello Aslam and Ex.Mi,

    Thank you both for your suggestions. We tried both of the plugins, first the really simple ssl and then the other, search and replace, and worked well. We already made the notifications to google through the google seach console and we will be waiting for the results.

    Thank you both for your help and prompt response.
