Forcing SSL secure pages (https://) in WordPress is a simple process that can be done in just a few steps.
Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Install & Activate SSL Certificate
Before you can force SSL secure pages, you need to have an SSL certificate installed and activated on your website.
Step 2: Update WordPress URL settings
Once your SSL certificate is installed and activated, log in to your WordPress dashboard. Go to “Settings” > “General” and update the “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)” to include “https://” instead of “http://”.
Step 5: Check and test SSL
You can do this by going to your website and checking the address bar in your browser. If the address starts with “https://”, SSL is working properly.
Congratulations! You have successfully forced SSL secure pages (https://) in WordPress.
