Need protocol relative URLs in back-end scripts

Hello,

My website is behind a Web Application Firewall (WAF) that does SSL offloading.

This means that the web server receives every request as if it’s non-SSL (http) even though the browser is on a SSL (https) connection.

Would it be possible to add a filter to the helpers_get_dir function so we can remove the ‘http:’ protocol or force it to be ‘https:’?

Right now I have to use this code to get the back-end working:
'dir' => str_replace('http:', '', apply_filters('acf/helpers/get_dir', __FILE__)),

Thanks,
Svavar

Hi @svavar,

Thanks for the post.

This issue has been brought to the attention of the plugin author and hopefully this will see its way into the plugin sometime soon 🙂
