SSL not being forced

Hi,

I have installed the Event Espresso SSL/HTTPS add-on but I cannot make it work. Every time I force ssl connection on any of the event espresso pages, I get a Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS): There were too many redirects.

I read all the posts related to this type of error, I tried everything I can think of but I cannot get this to work. This was working a couple of versions ago. Please help me.

Hello Ramon,

The Event Espresso SSL plugin has been discontinued quite some time ago. It was originally a fork of the WordPress HTTPS plugin, which can be found here http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-https/

Can I ask where you downloaded the Event Espresso SSL plugin from please? I would like to get that link removed.

Hi Dean,

Thanks for your response.

I actually use WordPress HTTPS on the site (been using it for months without problems). I only installed the event espresso ssl plugin because I found it in many of your forum posts (that’s where I got the download link from).

Anyway, the issue is still happening with WordPress HTTPS. If I try to force ssl with the plugin, the page is served as http,  and if I log to the browser console, the log says ssl: no

I have a woocommerce installation on the site and that forces ssl fine. I even tried to force ssl on the event registration page by creating a function, but that gives me the same (Too many redirects) error.

Please, I need your help as I needed to launch our first events sale last Saturday and I haven’t been able to do it because of this issue.

Thanks!

Something else is doing a redirect from the https to http, then WordPress HTTPS is doing the redirect from http to https. This causes a redirection loop which continues until the “Too many redirects” error. Try disabling the woocommerce plugin and see if it fixes the error. If so, look for an option in their ssl settings like “force http on non https pages” and disable it.

Hi Sidney,

I went ahead and disabled the force ssl option for woocommerce and used https to force ssl both for woocommerce and event espresso and everything seems to be working fine now.

Thanks for your help!
