Plugin submits http sitemap on https only websites

    My site is completely https and http links 301 redirect to the https equivalent. Both versions of the site are registered with google webmaster tools. It appears that your plugin only pings google with the non-existent http sitemap and not the correct https version. The plugin should either correctly detect this, or offer a manual menu/settings option to pick the correct sitemap type (http/https) so that https sites are supported. This is especially important as google starts courting the idea of offering an SEO boost to sites that are https only.

    Hi,

    The plugin i using the WordPress API function get_bloginfo('url') to get the URL to your WordPress installation. This function should return the URL you have defined in the WordPress admin panel (under General).

    Thank you Arnee for the quick response. That resolved my issue. I missed that setting when I migrated my site to full https. Thanks again for your plugin and the work you do!
