SSL website always times out

I'd like to access my Wordpress admin area through SSL, so the shared Webfaction certificate would be fine as I can ignore the browser warnings.

I've set up another website with HTTPS enabled that uses the same app. However, trying to connect to that site just times out. The HTTP site works fine as usual.

Can anyone suggest possible causes?

I dug around a bit and located your account and the site that's having the problem. I think the issue is that you don't have the site configured for SSL in CloudFlare.
