 * Hi. I ran a site audit using AHREFS.com, and it showed that I had a lot of URLs
   starting with http:// instead of [https://](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/webp-images-are-using-http-instead-of-https/?output_format=md).
   Some of these have to do with plugins, but a lot of the http:// URLs on my pages
   are for .webp images. I have WP-Optimize installed to create webp images. Is 
   there any way to force webp images to have an https:// URL?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwebp-images-are-using-http-instead-of-https%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * The WebP images do appear to be coming from https to me, for example
 * [https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/info-bytes-image-card.jpg.webp](https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/info-bytes-image-card.jpg.webp)
 * [https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp](https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp)
 * In fact when I try and goto a http: [http://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp](http://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp)
 * it redirect to the https: [https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp](https://govcdoiq.org/wp-content/uploads/resources-image-card.jpg.webp)
