  • Hardcoded URLs in database

Fixes:

WordPress:

1. Install "Better Search Replace" plugin

2. Replace http://yourdomain.com with https://yourdomain.com

3. Update WordPress Address and Site Address in Settings > General

Manual:

1. Search your code for http://

2. Replace with https:// or use protocol-relative //

3. Update database entries if needed

In .htaccess:

Add: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
