#20567 closed enhancement (duplicate)

is_ssl check for proxy forwarding

Description

When using SSL in a proxy environment, sometimes the proxy is configured to set the X-Forwarded headers rather than modify the original response headers. This patch adds two additional conditionals to is_ssl to check for these X-Forwarded headers.

The other ticket's patch only checks HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO and not HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PORT. Should I upload a patch to the other ticket?

Based on the comments in #15733, this is not a WordPress configuration issue. Set $_SERVER['HTTPS'] to whatever it is supposed to be on your environment via wp-config.php.

There's a ​simple plugin in Gist that could easily be modified to work with whichever situation you have on your specific server. Maybe someone could turn it into a configurable plugin if they felt the urge :)
