Some more testing of http and https

As discussed a WordPress support forum post Sporadic warnings on top of Control Panel, sub-theme started by bruceallen.

Textual in WordPress source file http headers only

Tested 05Feb2025.
WordPress 6.7.1, Really Simple Security 9.2.0 and a https://www.teigfam.net/.htaccess file

  1. http://www.teigfam.net – outside WordPress domain
    I edited and saved as http://
    Displayed here as http://
    WordPress saved built page source as http://
    Opens as https:// (by .htaccess?)
  2. http://www.teigfam.net/oyvind/ – outside WordPress domain
    I edited and saved as http://
    Displayed here as http://
    WordPress saved built page source as http://
    Opens as https:// (by .htaccess?)
  3. https://www.teigfam.net/oyvind/home/ – inside WordPress domain
    I edited and saved as http://
    Displayed here as https://
    WordPress saved built page source as https://
    Opens as https:// (by WordPress)

Even here where there only is preformatted http:// only text, not set up as a links, WordPress displays 3. as https://

1: http://www.teigfam.net   
2: http://www.teigfam.net/oyvind/      
3: https://www.teigfam.net/oyvind/home/
