This page is outdated and references legacy WordPress (1.5–2.8) practices, including deprecated rewrite rules and manual SSL setups. I’ve prepared a modernized draft that removes obsolete guidance, keeps relevant FORCE_SSL_ADMIN and reverse proxy examples, and adds current best practices such as Let’s Encrypt, HTTP/2/3, and HSTS.

Summary of Changes

  • Removed: Old Apache mod_rewrite configurations and virtual host examples for WordPress 1.5–2.x.
  • Kept: FORCE_SSL_ADMIN usage and reverse proxy/CDN handling examples.
  • Added: Modern HTTPS practices (Let’s Encrypt, Certbot, HTTP/2 & HTTP/3, automatic certificate provisioning).
  • Added: Best practices for HSTS, mixed content, redirects, and SSL testing.
