How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    With just a few clicks, I was able to set up HTTPS redirection quickly without manually editing any files. What I love the most is the automatic redirection feature that modifies the .htaccess file, ensuring that all pages are securely redirected to HTTPS without errors. The interface is simple, the setup is quick, and it works flawlessly. If you’re looking for an efficient way to enforce HTTPS on your website, this is definitely the best plugin to use! Huge thanks to the developers for creating such a useful tool!

    Even if you use it for your personal blog, with no ads or sevices sold, and choose to use the free version, Aksimet wants you to enter your full creddit card information. This is ridicilous. Why would I register my credit card info if I choose the “no payment” option? Edit: Sorry, I thought I commented to “Aksimet” plugin. Your plugin is perfectly fine. You require no payments, thanks for the good plugin.  “Easy HTTPS Redirection (SSL)” is a good plugin. This topic was modified 2 years, 11 months ago by uckunb. Reason: Wrong plugin comment, sorry

    This plugin works perfectly! I knew I could force SSL by playing with the .htaccess file but I didn’t want to mess things up. This plugin does it all for me and works like a charm. Thanks!
