I have been playing around with this a bit. Without the plugin activated, I added the following to the top of my .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
</IfModule>

This code broke the Google fetch, which shows a recursive redirect for my HTTPS page. The Google fetch results, listed as “Downloaded HTTP response”, start with a line “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” and end with “The document has moved here” with link to its own URL.

I am wondering if somehow HTTPS is being redirected to HTTP, and then back. Anyway it doesn’t look as if the issue is with your plugin, so I’m sorry for suggesting that.

Thank you for your reply.

It seems that the issue was only with my pages, not my posts. This may be why other users have not noticed it.

I believe my SSL certificate is properly configured. It has been working correctly for over a year.

Without your plugin, my site seems to work properly, but without HTTP to HTTPS redirection. This is not a big problem but may have a negative effect on my SEO.

I have the latest version of Yoast SEO. I don’t know of any other plugins that might be causing this issue. I don’t want to experiment too much as this is a live business site.

Thank you for the quick response. That seems to have fixed the problem.

This may help: the broken versions of the page don’t load my favicon or the WordPress user header bar (the one with “Howdy, Peter Kirk” and an icon on the right).

I should add that I am also using WPSSO Place / Location and Local Business Meta, which was also just updated to version 2.3.4, and was effectively deactivated when I deactivated WPSSO.

I wrote too soon. The site loaded OK on the pages which I refreshed in the same tab (in Chrome on Windows 10), but not when loaded in a new tab. So I need to disable again. Like monsuirette my primary concern is to keep a live website running.

I installed Query Monitor then reactivated WPSSO. Now the pages that weren’t displaying are displaying OK. I will watch them to check that this continues. But I did find the following in the Query Monitor log:

Found some feedback and a promise to fix on another thread.

Why is this marked “resolved”? It is not resolved until a working version has been released.

Same problem. I upgraded one of my blogs to 1.8 this morning and stats immediately stopped working. I didn’t touch my other blog, still using 1.7, and stats are working. Clearly a problem with 1.8. Both are self-hosted sites.

Thank you, hypershock. Sadly I don’t have the time or skills to help you with this. But I tidied up the image generated and reloaded it as a custom image which now looks a lot better. So I’ll leave it there.

Oh dear, the above was originally mangled because of a similar bug in the forum, which means that even the string ampersand-“a”-“m”-“p”-“;”-“g”-“t”-“;” was converted into a greater than sign, and even an escaped a attribute was turned into an actual attribute. After several attempts at editing I got it displaying more or less correct but I still had to leave a space between “<” and the following “a” to avoid this being misinterpreted as markup.

No, Heather, no HTML involved. You simply need to edit each page, find “Templates” under “Page Attributes” on the right, select “Sidebar Template”, then “Update” to save your changes.

Heather, I had to edit my pages individually to select the sidebar layout option. That wasn’t a big problem as there aren’t very many of them.

Thanks to Chris Aprea for already providing a solution for me, at Add Sidebar Support in Posts for the Twenty Eleven Theme. I will try it out shortly.
