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? 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 apply recommended **WordPress security headers** like HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options. ### 🔐 What does Volixta do? * **Activate SSL automatically**: safely update your WordPress `home` and `siteurl` to use `https://`. * **Force HTTPS with 301 redirect**: adds a safe `.htaccess` block on Apache/LiteSpeed, or falls back to a PHP redirect if needed. * **Fix mixed content**: scans your posts, postmeta, and options for `http://` links and replaces them with `https://` (serialization-safe). * **Apply modern HTTP Security Headers**: HSTS, Content-Security-Policy (`upgrade- insecure-requests`), X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy, COOP/ COEP/CORP. * **Nginx friendly**: when `.htaccess` is not available, Volixta shows ready-to- copy Nginx rules. * **Site Health integration**: checks for SSL, redirects, and security headers. ### ✅ Why choose Volixta? * **Safe by design** Nothing is applied automatically. You choose what to enable. Each `.htaccess` modification creates a timestamped backup. * **Serialization-safe mixed content fixer** No risk of breaking complex serialized data in `postmeta` or `options`. * **Admin-only processing** Everything runs in the admin area. The frontend only uses the optional PHP redirect when required. * **Localhost aware** Detects local environments (`localhost`, `.local`, `.test`) and provides instructions for enabling trusted HTTPS locally with [mkcert](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert). ### 🔎 Typical problems solved **How do I activate SSL in WordPress?** One click in Volixta updates your site to HTTPS safely. **How do I force HTTPS with 301 redirects?** Volixta inserts a safe `.htaccess` redirect or uses a PHP fallback. **My Site Health report says “No security headers detected”.** Apply modern ** security headers** in one click. **How can I add WordPress security headers without editing code?** Configure and apply headers from the plugin interface. **After enabling SSL, my site still shows mixed content errors.** Run the Mixed Content Scan + Fixer. **I’m on Nginx, so .htaccess doesn’t work.** Volixta provides ready-to-copy Nginx configuration snippets. ### Privacy This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit personal data. ### Localization Text domain: `volixta-ssl-security-headers` Load path: `/languages` ### What’s Next If you like this plugin, check out our other tools: * [VOLIXTA Booking – The All-in-One WordPress Booking Plugin](https://volixta.com) Manage unlimited staff, services, clients, payments, and locations in one powerful system. * [VOLIXTA Security Suite – Advanced WordPress Security Made Simple](https://volixta.com/volixta-security-suite) ## Screenshots * [[ * Dashboard showing SSL, redirect, headers, and server checks * [[ * One-click SSL activation and HTTPS redirect * [[ * Mixed content scan and fixer * [[ * Security headers configuration panel ## Installation 1.

Open Volixta click **Activate SSL**. The plugin updates your WordPress and Site URL to HTTPS. ### How do I add security headers in WordPress? Go to the **Security Headers** panel and click **Apply Security Headers**. ### Does it modify .htaccess? Yes, but only when you trigger an action manually. Blocks are clearly wrapped: * `# BEGIN Volixta HTTPS Redirect` * `# END Volixta HTTPS Redirect` Each change creates a backup file. ### Will it work on Nginx? Yes. Volixta shows Nginx configuration snippets for redirects and headers. ### Does it slow down my site? No. Everything runs only in the admin panel. On the frontend, only the optional PHP redirect runs when enabled. ### Can I use it locally? Yes. Local environments are detected automatically and instructions are provided to enable HTTPS with mkcert. ### Where are settings stored? Only minimal configuration is stored in `wp_options`: – headers configuration – redirect flag – mixed content scan results ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d4c81b275b28a38eb7defaf7d9a5a4844393f68a125dbcf2df9ddd9b7e08b9f9? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Helpful tool for cleaning up SSL issues](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/helpful-tool-for-cleaning-up-ssl-issues/)󠁿 [kayan1985](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kayan1985/) 11 сар 27, 2025 After switching my site to HTTPS, I kept seeing small issues I couldn’t fully trace.
