 * Hi,
 * I have an SSL cert installed on my site, and I am using the plugin Really Simple
   SSL.
 * The issue that I have is that on the first load of the website, the site is not
   displaying in https, if I click any buttons and navigate between the pages, the
   rest of the site will be in https, including if I navigate back to the index 
   page.
 * How can I get the initial load of the website to also show https content without
   having to navigate between other pages
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ffirst-time-load-not-https-3%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
