ParticipantCan anyone tell me what the problem is I am seeing in regards to the https not working properly on this site?
And now take a look at it under http...
The entire site works fine on every page under https. Only the front page shows wrong if it is visited under https. in http it shows fine.
I am using WordPress HTTPS.
I have never had any issue with it over the last year or so and all the sudden this is happening and I am not sure what the fix is. Any help/suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

ParticipantAwesome SSL troubleshooting tool here
Also while viewing the pages source>console you can see many mixed content errors.
Though I don't have a direct link; I know if you did some digging you could find a tutorial on search(http)/replace(https) @ sql database.
Is your WordPress installation set to 'https:' in general settings? Also checkout your redirect rules and make sure there isn't anything conflicting.
Even if the above things don't 'fix' the formatting issue; they still need addressed 🙂

ParticipantYeah, all of that was set in place and correct a year ago when it was installed. It only started doing this recently....

ParticipantSo disable W3 total cache altogether? Am I understanding that correctly? Disable / deactivate that plugin, clear browser cookies and then see if it reads correctly?

Participant@bisonbraah. Okay, that did the trick. Everything works fine now. I guess my remaining question is this....
Why did it work for so long? What was the conflict? Should I just delete w3 total cache? What/how should I cache the site, etc Do I really need it?
I appreciate the help.

ParticipantFantastic, glad I could assist!
Personally I use WPengine and their cacheing engine as well as CDN, so I wouldn't be able to answer that with confidence. However, go ahead and query the forum for something to your questions effect and I'm sure something will come up.
As far as why - could have been many of things (server side fluke, plugin update collision, sql update, etc.) not sure I know how to determine precisely what the one event was, sorry.
&& Yes, you should most deff use some kind of cache solution and CDN too!
