    I have acme and haproxy installed on a pfsense firewall.
    Haproxy is sending traffic to the web server using http.
    However, the web site was built using https urls/links/pages so things don’t display correctly.

    How do you handle this type of situation? Are you building your WP sites as http only or something else?

    Haproxy is sending traffic to the web server using http.

    Why? Why not HTTPS?

    HTTPS, for better or worse, is the norm these days.

    You’re not understanding the question. Of course https is the norm but when you’re using caching servers in front of the web sites, then you need the upstream decrypted traffic sent as http.

    I’ve got things working where it’s sending http but the web sites were all built using https urls/links/pages etc so lots of things break.
