## Description

Hi all.

The last 3 times we've upgraded our copy of openproject, the Protocol on the settings pages changes from HTTPS to HTTP. Although our site continues to work over HTTPS, the login page submit changes to HTTP causing errors because of the security. 

I know it's a simple thing, and we've put a note in to try and remember on upgrades, but we're hoping it's also a simple fix too that you can hopefully put in.

If it helps - we use APT package manager to upgrade our openproject. We also talk to our server via another running nginx. The comms between the two are not SSL encrypted, but they are between users and the nginx box.
