  How do I change the address so it starts with https? WordPress address and site address on the settings/general page. These are greyed out and https isn’t functioning correctly anyway. Please help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey,

  WordPress.com automatically redirects all its sites to https only. You do not need to manually enter it. When I visit your blog ‘stevewillimas.wordpress.com it automatically redirects me to a https version ‘https://stevewillimas.wordpress.com/’.

  Hope this helps :)

  Usually you need to ask your host (in your case Zen Internet) about SSL Certificates.
