 * So I recently, built and LAMP server and installed wordpress on it. I connected
   it to the web via a reverse ssh tunnel using serveo.net. I decided to add ssl
   and the rest of the website seem to work fine, but wordpress keeps breaking when
   I try to use ssl. I went to the general settings and changed the urls to http
   instead of https, but when I load the pages, in the source code the css and js
   urls are using http instead of https, so they won’t load. Then wp-admin part 
   won’t even load. How do I fix this? I’ve looked at quite a few posts about people
   having similar problems, but none of them helped.
    I’m using the default theme.
