This very simple plugin aims at avoiding mixed content when using https for wordpress sites.
<h4>Principle</h4>
When you are using HTTPS for browsing, all content resources will point to https. All ‘http’ references will be changed to ‘https’.
On the contrary, if you want HTTP browsing, all references will be changed to ‘http’, which can be useful if you are behind a proxy that filters https.

Thanks @janiko for creating this great plugin! It works fantastic on my sites and even your source code looks amazing. Well done!

Simple and yet powerful!

Force http/https for resources, depending on the scheme you use.

Is your WordPress site still serving pages over HTTP instead of HTTPS? 
Do you see browser warnings like “Not Secure” even though you installed SSL? 
Are you getting mixed content errors in Chrome or Firefox after enabling HTTPS? 
Or is your Site Health report complaining about missing security headers?
👉 Volixta SSL & Security Headers fixes all of these in a few clicks. 
Easily activate SSL, force 301 redirects, repair mixed content, and add recommended WordPress security headers like HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options.
<h3>🔐 What does Volixta do?</h3>
<ul>
<li>Activate SSL automatically: safely update your WordPress <code>home</code> and <code>siteurl</code> to use <code>https://</code>.</li>
<li>Force HTTPS with 301 redirect: adds a safe <code>.htaccess</code> block on Apache/LiteSpeed, or falls back to a PHP redirect if needed.</li>
<li>Fix mixed content: scans your posts, postmeta, and options for <code>http://</code> links and replaces them with <code>https://</code> (serialization-safe).</li>
<li>Apply modern HTTP Security Headers: HSTS, Content-Security-Policy (<code>upgrade-insecure-requests</code>), X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy, COOP/COEP/CORP. All values are editable before applying.</li>
<li>Nginx friendly: when <code>.htaccess</code> is not available, Volixta shows ready-to-use Nginx snippets for redirects and headers.</li>
<li>Site Health integration: new tests for SSL validity, HTTPS redirect, and security headers presence.</li>
</ul>
<h3>✅ Why choose Volixta?</h3>
<ul>
<li>Safe by design: 
Nothing is applied automatically. You choose what to enable. Each <code>.htaccess</code> write creates a timestamped backup. </li>
<li>Serialization-safe mixed content fixer: no risk of breaking complex data in <code>postmeta</code> or <code>options</code>. </li>
<li>Admin-only: no runtime overhead on the frontend (except optional PHP redirect). </li>
<li>Localhost aware: detects local environments (<code>localhost</code>, <code>.local</code>, <code>.test</code>) and shows guided instructions with <a href="https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert" rel="nofollow ugc">mkcert</a>. </li>
</ul>
