 * at the top right of the “post” screen in the admin there is a little tab that
   says “screen options” hit that to pull down the screen options tab and then uncheck
   HTTPS.

 * Thank you for your reply. But if a new user signs up in my website. He has to
   remove it manually by using screen options. I would like to hide it via a code
   hack.
 * Your help will be highly appreciated.
 * Thanks.
