Openshift redirects wp-admin to https

Question

In general option in wordpress, I have changed the wordpress directory to be on http://mywebsite.com but wordpress dashboard is still in htpps causing mixed content

Answer 1

There is a setting in your wp-config.php file that directs all admin traffic over https. You would need to disable that option for your admin panel to work correctly.

FORCE_SSL_ADMIN needs to be false:

define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', false);

solves the issue. See relevant WordPress Codex pages:
