Question
Https redirect doesn't work?
the site in question is: gengoka.com
I set up a marketplace Wordpress installation with let’s encrypt.
If I directly type in gengoka.com into my browser, it doesn’t connect and I get a timeout error.
If I type https://gengoka.com into my browser there are no issues.
Also, if I go to the non secure http://gengoka.com version of the site, it also gives me the timeout error.
I tried using the Really Simple SSL plugin in Wordpress for a 301 redirect, but that hasn’t helped. I also tried a redirect in the apache conf file for sites enabled, and that didn’t work either (though not 100% if I did it correctly).
What should I try next?

FYI for others looking here we ended up with Dennis helping me set up the Wordpress installation for me from scratch on a Debian droplet, so you won’t find a direct answer looking through the comments.
