A simple WordPress plugin that redirects your site to HTTPS
Simple SSL
With Simple SSL you can enable HTTPS redirect for your website that is running on a Apache-based webserver. It is required to have a valid SSL certificate for your site that we do not provide.
What does the plugin do?
It configures your .htaccess file which is a configuration file used by Apache. We add the following setting that configures your website to redirect all traffic to HTTPS.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301,NE]
We also automatically update your general settings to use HTTPS instead of HTTP. You can easily enable and disable all this from the admin page.
