* We just noticed that WP-HTML-Compression is stripping https from external links.
We’ve confirmed that disabling the plugin resolves the issue so I wanted to report
it so that it can hopefully be corrected. I found an old post with the same issue
but have not found a fix yet.
* This is the external link we’re trying [https://roc.uwctc.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=roc-public-home](https://roc.uwctc.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=roc-public-home)
* As of now, their non-https does not work so when it’s stripped it causes an issue.
