Hello @mhmd.yassin07 - thank you for your question! :wave:

If you manually load the site with https:// does that work for you or do you get an unsecured error?

Thanks!

Exactly, it’s don’t work, so all my requests to external APIs that need SSL are refused
I used the WordPress official method wp_remote_request() | Function | WordPress Developer Resources
and also I used the code generated by Postman
Generating client code | Postman Learning Center

and both ways didn’t work cause the server API refuse the connection because their is no certificate

Hello @mhmd.yassin07 - thank you for providing that extra context.

Have you gone through some of the troubleshooting steps from this article? There are a number of different things to try near the bottom of this Help Doc:

Hi I’ve been experiencing the same issue. Here’s what I’m running:

  • Windows 11
  • Local: Version 8.2.0+6554
  • Web Browser: Google Chrome

As you can see SSL has been marked as “Trusted”

But I am still getting a not secure message.

I’ve gone through the troubleshooting steps linked by @sambrockway

Is there a fix or some work around?

Hi @brendo - Just to check did you look into these items at the bottom of the article from Sam?

Can you manually access the HTTPS version in a browser? (edit the URL to include HTTPS protocol)

Can you access the site over HTTPS in another browser?

Do you have any antivirus software installed?

In Chrome, type thisisunsafe - If all else fails, then within Chrome you can try typing thisisunsafe.

Yes I can manually access the website via https by typing it in but that is unreliable. Sometimes SSL persists while other times it doesn’t. This only work in chrome.

No I cannot access the site w/ https (manually or otherwise) in other browsers. Just chrome

No antivirus software.

I am using the wpgraphql plug in which seems to require SSL to make request to it’s endpoint.

I’ve tested and verified that SSL is the issue because I have a WP site hosted by bluehost with their SSL certs and I can hit the graphql endpoint from my localhost application. When trying to us wplocal in the exact same way I cannot hit that endpoint.

Hi @brendo -

Are you still running into this issue or has it been resolved with recent versions of Local?

Thanks!

Sam

Yes still seems to be a problem. SSL simply doesn’t work
