Force SSL Admin

Always open your dashboard and login screen over a secure https:// link. Anyone using the old http:// address is sent to the encrypted URL automatically.

Overview

Redirects dashboard and/or login to HTTPS so http:// admin URLs become encrypted. Separate toggles for dashboard vs login—both default off; module on alone does nothing until you check an area and save. Enable confirm requires working SSL; emergency safety disable URL exists if something goes wrong. Soft overlap with host-level Force SSL and Security Headers HSTS. Do not enable without a valid certificate.
