EE4: admin-ajax.php https

In Firefox, I get: “This registration step could not be completed. Please refresh the page and try again.” when attempting to register.

I’ve narrowed this down to Firefox blocking non-HTTPS content on the registration page – specifically the call to /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

Is there a way to make this call on HTTPS when HTTPS is being used instead of HTTP?

Hi Kevin,

Are you using a plugin like WP HTTPS to force SSL?

Also, does this happen on the registration checkout page? If so, could you share a link?

We are using WordPress HTTPS and this is happening on the registration checkout page. This is a good example page: http://www.ceimaine.org/workshops-and-events/owning-managing-residential-properties-hoe-7634/

Checkout is fine in Chrome, but it seems less sensitive to non-HTTPS connections.

Thanks for that link. Are you running WordFence or any other security plugins?

Yes, I do have WordFence running, as well.

Hello,

Could you try temporarily deactivating that plugin or adjusting the security settings to see if the blocked resource issue goes away?

I tried disabling WordFence and ran into the same error. It seems EE is calling admin-ajax.php somewhere as http not https?

I enabled force admin ssl in wordpress https and that seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks for sharing how you solved the issue. Is the following the change that you made?

Wordfence is activated and you enabled forcing SSL for WP Https
