the website loads correctly but I can’t access wp-admin page in wordpress. This is after installing SSL certificate.
Method 1: simply add this code in simply add this code in wp-config.php file in your root folder. you can access it through FTP. It worked like a champ for me.
/** SSL */
define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);
// in some setups HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO might contain
// a comma-separated list e.g. http,https
// so check for https existence
if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'], 'https') !== false)
$_SERVER['HTTPS']='on';
Method 2:
Add these lines in the wp-config.php file
define('WP_HOME','https://www.example.com/');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://www.example.com/');
Any one of the above two method will work. For me, the First method worked like a champ for wp-admin redirect loop after SSL https activation
