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>
<h3>🔎 Typical problems solved</h3>
<ul>
<li>
“How do I activate SSL in WordPress?” 
→ One click in Volixta updates your site to HTTPS safely.
</li>
<li>
“How do I force HTTPS with 301 redirects?” 
→ Volixta inserts a safe <code>.htaccess</code> 301 redirect or a PHP fallback.
</li>
<li>
“My Site Health report says ‘No security headers detected’.” 
→ Apply missing security headers (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, etc.) in one click.
</li>
<li>
“How can I add WordPress security headers without editing code?” 
→ Use Volixta’s panel to configure and apply headers safely.
</li>
<li>
“After enabling SSL, my site still shows mixed content errors.” 
→ Run the Mixed Content Scan + Fixer to repair unsafe links automatically.
</li>
<li>
“I’m on Nginx, so .htaccess doesn’t work.” 
→ Copy/paste the Nginx-ready snippets Volixta provides for HTTPS redirects and headers.
</li>
</ul>

The WordSentinel plugin by Nexsol Technologies Sàrl enhances your WordPress website’s security by automatically applying and managing HTTP security headers — including Content Security Policy (CSP) — while providing live security analysis powered by Mozilla Observatory.
Unlike simple header managers, WordSentinel actively helps you understand, measure, and improve your site’s protection. 
It provides clear dashboards, actionable insights, and real-time grading so you can reinforce your headers with confidence — no deep technical knowledge required.
<h4>What WordSentinel Does</h4>
WordSentinel helps protect your WordPress website against common web vulnerabilities such as: 
– Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) 
– Clickjacking attacks 
– Content injection and mixed content issues 
– Insecure resource loading (scripts, iframes, styles)
It does so by implementing a complete and configurable set of browser-level security headers, giving you granular control over each directive.
In addition, it connects securely to Mozilla Observatory to scan your site and assign a security grade (A+ to F), helping you benchmark your configuration and understand what needs improvement.
