 * The option in Performance > Html Minify called “Remove schemes (HTTP: and HTTPS:)
   from all URLs” forces all external links on my site to use [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/an-option-forced-all-external-links-to-use-https/?output_format=md).
   Not sure if it is some other plugin that adds the https protocol in front of 
   the links but when I disable this option from Clearfy the problem goes away.
 * I would suggest adding a red box next to this setting saying it might conflict
   with other plugins.

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for report! I will test this setting and if it really can harm the 
   user’s site, I will mark it as dangerous!
 * Best regards, Alex
