 * Hi, great plugin!
 * I’m testing it on a fresh WP (Twenty eleven & no other active plugins) installation
   hosted on host gator. Everything seems fine but if I’m on a secure page, the 
   Home link and the the site name header link always have an HTTPS URL.
 * On the settings I do have the “Force SSL Exclusively” setting checked and the“
   Secure Front Page” unchecked.
 * I’ve even tried to set the frontpage to a static, non secured page and the results
   are the same.
 * The expected behavior is that on a secure page the header link and the home link
   should have a HTTP url instead of the HTTPS url, or maybe I’m misunderstanding
   something.
 * On the readme file you have the following note under the 3.0.2 changelog:
 * * Bug Fix – If Force SSL Exclusively is enabled and Secure Front Page is not (
   or the front page is not secured), links to the front page will be set to HTTP.
 * Which is not happening to me, and I’m on Version 3.0.3
 * Any thoughts? thank you in advance!

 * This is a long shot, but I had a typo in the code that may be the reason this
   is a problem. Try uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling. I hotfixed the typo
   in the current version. If not, let me know and we’ll figure it out.
