WordPress is changing all my URLs from:

https://www.example.com/...

to:

//www.example.com/...

For example:

<link rel="canonical" href="//www.example.com/"/>

I don't want this to happen, because it has some side effects with CDN rewriting, and my site is https only.

What is the best way to disable this "feature"?

  • To me this sounds like a bug in some plugin. Try to disable all plugins and/or change the theme and see if that behavior is gone. Then re-activate plugin after plugin and check when the behavior is back… Commented Feb 28, 2016 at 13:05

It was caused by CloudFlare https (which doesn't set the $_SERVER['HTTPS'] variable), I solved it by forcing:

$_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on';

in the webserver configuration. After doing so I could also disable the CloudFlare Flexible SSL plugin, and get a little performance gain.
