 * I recently upgraded to wordpress 4.3.1 from 3.9.3, and now my thumbnails don’t
   show on pages while in https, but if I change the URL to http, they work. The
   full-sized images work fine. I’ve got my post images on Amazon S3 & use cloudfront–
   it all worked fine until I updated. I deactivated all of my plugins to see if
   one was causing it, but they weren’t.
 * When I look at the broken thumbnail URL (in https), I can see that the first 
   part of my domain URL is being inserted into the cloudfront URL.
    Example: [https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/https://www.tracibunkers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/TraciBunkers.com-handprinted-cards-workshop-150×150.jpg](https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/https://www.tracibunkers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/TraciBunkers.com-handprinted-cards-workshop-150×150.jpg)
 * so it’s inserting [https://www.tracibunkers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/](https://www.tracibunkers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/)
   in after [https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/](https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/).
 * The URL should just be [https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/TraciBunkers.com-handprinted-cards-workshop-150×150.jpg](https://d2k2naxhvn4zw5.cloudfront.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/TraciBunkers.com-handprinted-cards-workshop-150×150.jpg)
 * I found this thread: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-for-post-thumbnails?replies=10](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/https-for-post-thumbnails?replies=10)
   
   which lead me to this bug ticket that says it’s been fixed. [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15928](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15928)
   But I wonder if this fix is causing it to insert my domain into the image URL.
