| Editions | JSM Force HTTP to HTTPS / SSL | SSL Insecure Content Fixer |
| Pros | No settings: activate and HTTP URLs become HTTPS; Uses 301 redirects and filters instead of output buffering; Honours X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-Ssl proxy headers | Graded fix levels, from simple to widget-wide; Built-in tests that check HTTPS detection behind proxies; Network settings page for multisite installs |
| Cons | Does not change URLs stored in the database; Only disabled through constants in wp-config.php; Needs a site that already serves valid HTTPS | Rewrites output at runtime rather than fixing stored URLs; Hard-coded http assets in theme or plugin files need manual fixes; Stronger fix levels add some page processing cost |
