   I have a web that have to run behind a reverse proxy, and the login and administration panel must be under SSL

   Proxy url: http://example.com
   Real url: http://example-prep.com (where wordpress is installed)

   Everything works ok, but when i try to access administration panel using http://example.com/wp-admin or http://example.com/wp-login.php it redirects to https://example-prep.com/wp-login.php (I have FORCE_SSL_LOGIN and FORCE_SSL_ADMIN activated),so the proxy doesn't recognize the direction and firefox returns server not found error.

   I think the problem is in wp-login.php with the value returned by HTTP_HOST

   // Redirect to https login if forced to use SSL
   if ( force_ssl_admin() && !is_ssl() ) {
   if ( 0 === strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'http') ) {
   wp_redirect(preg_replace('|^http://|', 'https://', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']));
   exit();
   } else {
   wp_redirect('https://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
   exit();
   }
   }

   Is there any solution to force wordpress to take the proxy url instead the real url like it must be?

   Thanks
