Upgrade to SSL Breaks Admin Dashboard

by

Not sure what plugin you are using to enforce SSL, but I would disable it to prevent conflicts with the possible solution below.

To make sure you’ve updated all of your URLs to the HTTPS, do the following:

  1. Go and download Interconnect IT’s Database Search & Replace Script here
  2. Unzip the file and drop the folder (Search-Replace-DB-master) where your WordPress is installed (the root) and rename the folder to replace (screenshot)
  3. Navigate to the new folder you created in your browser (ex: https://www.ramblingnewyorker.com/replace) and you will see the search/replace tool
  4. It should be pretty self-explanatory up to this point: enter your HTTPS link in the search for… field and the new HTTPS link in the replace with… field

You can click the dry run button under actions to see what it will be replacing before you execute the script. Once you’re done be sure to remove the /replace/ folder.

This will help ensure that you are full running your website on the new SSL (https://) links. If you’re still having issue, let me know. So we can figure out the next step.
