 * The general topic I need help with involves the values stored in a multisite’s“
   options” table after it’s created.
 * Using MySQL command line I did this to show a site that is working correctly:
 * mysql> select * from blahlbha_123_options where option_value like “http%”;
    +———–
   +————-+——————————–+———-+ | option_id | option_name | option_value | autoload 
   | +———–+————-+——————————–+———-+ | 1 | siteurl | [https://sitesite.community.uaf.edu](https://sitesite.community.uaf.edu)
   | yes | | 2 | home | [https://sitesite.community.uaf.edu](https://sitesite.community.uaf.edu)
   | yes | | 34 | ping_sites | [http://rpc.pingomatic.com/](http://rpc.pingomatic.com/)
   | yes | +———–+————-+——————————–+———-+ 3 rows in set (0.01 sec)
 * We want our new multisites to have serve up content using https.
 * The problem is that new sites have their option_values set as ‘http’ when we 
   create a new site. We can fix this with the MySQL command line client easily 
   enough, its remembering to do it.
 * It used to be that The root site would dictate whether subsequent sites served
   up http or https. That stopped being the case perhaps in version 4.0.
 * So, is there a fix to this?
    Alternatively, is there an existing bug to this?
   I’ve searched the bug tracker ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/search?q=https+new+site](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/search?q=https+new+site))
   but I’m unsure of which terms to use in my query.
 * I would love to find a fix, or write a helpful bug report.
