The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

Make wordpress back to http from https

I have wordpress site which was working correctly on apache site before.

https://example.com -> (port 443) -> apache server

However now I installed nginx for reverse proxy.

https://example.com -> (port 443) -> nginx ->(port 8080) -> apache

So now, when accesing wordpress site, there comes the error like this below

The page at '<URL>' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script '<URL>'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS

I guess it is because of some files loaded from wordpress does not accept HTTP

How can I solve this? is there any relevant setting in wordpress ?

I can understand the server setting , but wordpress is blackbox for me.

    Check your page source and you must be having some external javascript files served over http like

    <script src="http://example.com/bla/bla/somefile.js">

    This needs to be served over https, like …

    <script src="https://example.com/bla/bla/somefile.js">

    If you check using chromes developer tool you will find out easily which of your javascript files are loaded over example.com . This needs to be fixed in code. You should include any external javascript over https protocol to get rid of that warning.

    Hope that helps.

    You can take HTTP/S back with a few simple SQLs:

    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = replace(option_value, 'http://example.com', 'https://example.com') WHERE option_name = 'home' OR option_name = 'siteurl';
UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = REPLACE (guid, 'http://example.com', 'https://example.com');
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REPLACE (post_content, 'http://example.com', 'https://example.com');
UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = REPLACE (meta_value, 'http://example.com','https://example.com');

    But be careful, not all scripts support the HTTP protocol, as already mentioned.
