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>

WordPress security is essential to protect your website from hackers and malicious attacks. Without proper security measures, your site can be vulnerable to data breaches, spam, and unauthorized access. A well-secured WordPress site ensures that your content, user data, and website functionality remain safe from threats.
This plugin boosts your WordPress security with several key features:
<ol>
<li>Security Headers: Adds extra layers of protection by sending security headers with each page load.</li>
<li>Change WP Login Error Message: Hides whether the username or password is incorrect, preventing hackers from easily guessing your login details.</li>
<li>Disable WP REST API: Stops unauthorized access to your site’s data by disabling the REST API for non-logged-in users.</li>
<li>Disable XML-RPC: Blocks XML-RPC functionality to prevent brute force attacks and unauthorized access.</li>
<li>Disable Right-Click: Adds a basic level of protection against copying your site content by disabling right-clicking.</li>
<li>Disable Ctrl+C, Ctrl+X, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+A: It will disable these shortcuts, preventing copying of site content.</li>
<li>Email Alerts on Login: Sends the site admin an email alert every time someone logs into the WordPress dashboard.</li>
<li>Change Default WP-Login URL: Customize your WordPress Login Page URL to any name instead of the default ‘wp-admin.’</li>
</ol>
Special Feature: 
If you’re locked out of your WordPress Dashboard (e.g., forgot the custom login URL), you can deactivate the plugin using a special URL. This allows you to regain access without needing to log in to cPanel or FTP.
