When I enable https on my website, the events calendar loads ok but when you try to click the to the next month, a grey spinning loading circle appears and it hangs up. Nothing else will load.
Have disabled the https and its back to normal.
Any suggestions on fixes for this?
I’m sorry to hear you’re hitting up against difficulties: can you provide any further details about your HTTPS setup – was it as simple as changing the WordPress and Site Address URLs in the general settings screen, or were you using a helper plugin or anything of that nature?
Certainly, locally, if I test accessing a site running The Events Calendar over HTTPS it works as expected – so I’m interested to learn more about what’s going wrong in your case.
More info,
Its a multiwordpress site. It’s using cloudflare ssl. Was using the cloudflare ssl plugin to fix redirect loops and wordpress https plugin so force all content to https.
This link properly explains the SSL setup.
OK. Are you able to disable this in the case of requests to admin-ajax.php? If that isn’t feasible for some reason then I’d recommend one of two courses of action:
- You would either need to ensure public-facing event pages are also served over HTTPS, or,
- Perhaps make use of CORS to eliminate this problem
Ideally everything would be served over https
What role does the admin-ajax.php play? I have the options in the wordpress ssl plugin to force domain mappings so prehaps that could be done with that?
Hi!
What role does the admin-ajax.php play?
Despite the presence of “admin” in that name, it is the recommended controller for any and all ajax requests (not just those within the admin environment) that plugins such as our own generate.
I have the options in the wordpress ssl plugin to force domain mappings so prehaps that could be done with that?
Changing your WordPress and Site URL fields (in the General Settings screen) so they use the “https://” protocol is an easy way to ensure HTTPS is used everywhere.
For anything beyond that, such as extra rules relating to CloudFlare or exceptions for admin-ajax.php requests (if those are needed) we’d really need to leave things in your hands: the vendor for the other plugins/services you are using are probably best placed to help with any questions you have about their usage 🙂
I hope that helps!
