I recommend getting a $ /year Comodo ssl certificate like this you only need to reinstall it every year. Install the certificate Depending on the hoster, control panel and type of certificate, you will need to install it (or enable the autoinstaller in the control panel). On Cpanel the solution is very simple: If the automatic certificate offered free by cPanel is enabled, you will not have to do anything, it is already configured and enabled; If your host has enabled the ability to manage SSL certificates, you can manage them yourself using the features of the "Security" section of the cpanel. Certificate installed: next steps.
The purchase, installation and configuration of the SSL certificate are only the first steps : if you have done everything correctly, the site is now PREPARED to use https, but you must immediately configure and optimize the site to ensure that: only https pages are served; redirects photo editor for old URLs are correctly configured; all ancillary services connected to the site are updated. Let's see in detail what it is. Update all http links on the database All links in the WordPress database will still point to insecure.
To solve the problem you can do it in two ways: configure a redirect via plugin and/or .htaccess; edit links directly in the DB. The best way is to modify the links natively, in the Database, for various reasons: because the presence of http links on your pages causes the browser to generate a "mixed content" warning; because solving only at the .htaccess level also generates redirects for your own links; for other reasons, details of which can be found online with Google searches. You will therefore need to use a special tool to replace all the occurrences in your database, search for and replace it with. I use Interconnectit's Search and Replace DB.
