 * I have a page with hardcoded images and it’s removing protocol from the image
   src root (src=”http:// becomes src=// ).
 * I use both W3TC and CloudFlare but I have turned both off and put the page in
   the W3TC exclusion list and this still happens.
 * I even tried using output buffering and it still doesn’t stop this.
