Scope/EnvironmentWorldServer
Symptoms/Context

It is no longer possible to manipulate the WorldServer URL in the address bar in order to quickly switch between projects. For example, by changing this part in bold:
 
http://acme.sdlproducts.com/ws/#app=ws_suite&entry=ws_projects&url=projects%2F1119%2Ftasks%3FprojectsGroup%3Dtrue%26projectGroupViewMode%3D5

 
Resolution

These additional security settings are advised by RWS Support, and WorldServer product development, and we do not recommend disabling them.
Root Cause

Secure options have been enabled in WorldServer to increase its robustness to cyber attacks.

Those settings that cause this specific symptom are the following:
 
session_client_check=on
use_secure_urls=true
