MyBB Community Forums

I just activated the SSL and updated the .htaccess file with this:

#Rewrite everything to https
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

The guy at one.com said it will take 90 minutes to work and my site is now stuck in trying to load. I'm a little worried. Is there anything I should have done before I did this? I've done it with Wordpress before, it worked fine, but not mybb.

My site is ontic-philosophy.com

I made this change because I read Tapatalk and various browsers may stop non https websites from being shown or updated soon.

What specifically did they say would take 90 minutes? The SSL activation? Could you not just remove this temporarily? I'm getting timeout/no response errors, rather than anything to do with redirects or SSL errors.

They said the SSL would take 90 minutes to activate. I tried removing it (the .htaccess file), but it still timed out.

I'd check with them if anything has gone wrong with the activation then, not sure why it takes 90 minutes, but I'm not sure the error is related to anything you've done.

It does say under the activation button that it takes 90 minutes, but as long as I didn't have to configure anything in the ACP first, I will just have to wait. I will add an update later on here.
