@mimke Thanks for the ticket, and welcome to WordPress Trac.

Can you let us know a few things in order to determine the cause, please?

  • Which mixed content is present on the page? (You can find this in your browser's developer console)
  • Do you have a wp-content/install.php script present which may be interfering?
  • Are you running your site behind a reverse proxy, for example via Cloudflare?

Hello.
I had the same issue.
I'm using Wordpress 4.9.4.
I'm running it behind an nginx reverse proxy with the necessary proxy headers:

proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $proxy_connection;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $proxy_x_forwarded_proto;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Ssl $proxy_x_forwarded_ssl;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $proxy_x_forwarded_port;

I've added the following code right before the "That's all, stop editing..." line in my wp-config.php based on the instructions located at: https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL#Using_a_Reverse_Proxy

// If we're behind a proxy server and using HTTPS, we need to alert Wordpress of that fact 
// see also http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL#Using_a_Reverse_Proxy 
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO']) && $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] === 'https') { 
        $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on'; 
}

Now it works fine.
Hope that helps :)
