Redirect Chain
-
I moved my site to https a few months back using cloudflare and all went well site is now running on https fine
I have recently also signed up to MozPro and it says I have a redirect chain on
I am not sure where to start looking to fix this?
Site is running on Wordpress
Also not sure how big of an issue it is as site is working ok?
Bit confused as i used this http://www.redirect-checker.org/index.php
and it reports no issues?

you will be better off doing it at the domain registrar "manage dns" section. if thats not avialable than just set it up under cloud flare to go directly to https for all versions. make sure you update all your urls in your wordpress install.

Thanks Joe,
I have a plugin called Really Simple SSL which just has a radio button which says
Enable Wordpress 301 redirection to SSL - so need to do a bit more research to fix this one

I've had a look at your site & you have
- http://rogerlapin.co.uk/ - Status code 301 - redirect URL to https://rogerlapin.co.uk/
- https://rogerlapin.co.uk/ - Status code 301 - **redirect URL **https://www.rogerlapin.co.uk/
- https://www.rogerlapin.co.uk/ - Status code 200
You're using number 3 (above) as your URL, so, my suggestion is to set both the redirect URLs for 1 & 2 (above) to https://www.rogerlapin.co.uk/ instead of the chain you currently appear to have in place.
