 Replying to [comment:4 OskHa]:
 > yes, but its "dirty".

 It's worth pointing out that this isn't "dirty". This is literally the
 correct solution in order to add support for non-standard HTTP headers
 such as `X_FORWARDED_PROTO` which are sent as a result of using a reverse
 proxy, irrespective of whether you're using WordPress or not.

 Also, there's no need for that code to be placed in an `init` callback
 (and will cause issues for code that uses URL functions prior to that
 hook). It should go directly in your `wp-config.php` file (minus the
 unnecessary call to `is_ssl()`.
