[Simple] HTTPS support

    Hi,

    I wasn’t sure where to put this, but this is arguably an important issue (though not critical).

    The links in Septera (and I assume other themes) and in the Cryout plugins all use “http://” paths. This means that they cannot be used safely in https.

    There is a simple fix: Change “http://” to “//”. Browsers will use that for either “http” or “https”, depending on what protocol is used.

    Example:

    (Apologies if you know this already.)

    Thank you.

    Links are not part of Septera. And which plugins are you referring to?

    All the links which are displayed in content are part of the content added to the site (menu, widgets, pages/posts) so they are under your control.

    Those used by WordPress (for the styles, scripts, some media, so on) are dependent on the URL you installed WordPress at and can be updated to use HTTPS if needed.

    You can find information for this procedure in the official WordPress.org forums and the documentation:
