My site has an SSL so it is secure (https) but when I install WPForo it only uses the http for Custom Authorization URLs and Members URL structure. How do I get it to use the https?

@coachdavidlee2,

1. You please make sure your website URLs have https:// protocol in Dashboard > Settings > General admin page.

2. Then go to Dashboard > Forums > Settings > General tab and click [Update Options] button to reset wpForo Base URL.

3. Then go to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page and click on the [Delete All Caches] button.

In case you want to say thank you !)
