The reason for the problem is that get_user_id_from_string has been deprecated.

Below is a fix that solves this problem.

352c352
< $user_id = is_wp_error( $user ) ? get_user_id_from_string( $user->user_login ) : null;
---
> $user_id = $user->ID;

The if/else statement is unnecessary since it’s executed again on the next line of the code.

$user_id = $user->ID;

if ( is_wp_error( $user ) ||

I’ve been using the plugin for quite some time, but lately, due to the comparability issues with the newer WordPress versions, I had to figure out a solution.

In my case, where I have access to the server WordPress is hosted on I ended up by redirecting all traffic from HTTP to HTTPS through the VirtualHost.

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin [email protected]
    ServerName domain.tld
    ServerAlias www.domain.tld

    RedirectMatch permanent ^/(.*) https://domain.tld/$1
</VirtualHost>

It solved my issue and everything runs fine without the HTTPS plugin.

In my opinion, this is something that WordPress should implement natively.
HTTPS in a multisite environment must be very common now a days.

Can someone please call WordPress Foundation and ask them to implement this? ??
