Connection over https doesent work #42

I tried to set up a sync between my two WordPress sites and I had some trouble getting everything set up. I used the exact address listed in the "WordPress Address (URL)" in the setting, but it didn't seem to work the same with localhost I tried everything from setting up new security keys to adding the "/" at the end of the address nothing seemed to work, but then I tied the address with http and to my surprise the connection was successful. Not only that, but I did not read anything in any documentation that SSL wasn't supported? Both sites have a valid SSL certificate, and again I used the exact same address as in "WordPress Address (URL)".

I mean, if it works, but I'm a bit concerned about security without SSL. To my understanding, the security keys are used to de- and encrypt any data sent, right? If this is the case, this shouldn't be a problem.

@0ofland under Settings>General> Wordpress address url. you have most likely never changed the default address so it is still using http:// and not https:// so in the log when you see it failing, "action is not activated on http<<<<<<< "it is because the server is giving the wrong official url name even though the connection works it will not update the wrong site name.
