 * Okay some more info… seems this is a bug introduced in wordpress 3.3. [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19722](http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/19722)
 * In essence I’ve been digging into the GUID stored for the post created for each
   of the image attachments. In short, if you upload via wordpress or Eazyest, the
   protocol you are using in the admin panel at the time of the upload (or discovery
   in the case of Easyest) is stored in the GUID for that post (attachment).
 * Ie, HTTP/HTTPs.
 * Now, it seems that wordpress does a bit of a substitution if you load up the 
   thumbnail/attachment from a http session when uploaded with HTTPS (or vice versa)
   and then puts in the incorrect path.
 * I am going to test a few theories for workarounds as I cant imagine using wordpress
   without at least SSL login (to prevent cleartext password transmission).

 * Okay, I know I said I wouldnt troubleshoot further but I hit the next hurdle 
   and found some more interesting information.
 * Here goes, I replaced WordPress HTTPS Plugin with this guide: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL)
   (
   In essence add `define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);` to your wp-config.php).
 * Now here is the crux.
    If the photos are discovered via a HTTPS admin session,
   they are viewable if you view the page with HTTPS, Not HTTP.
 * If the photos are discovered via a HTTP admin session, they are viewable if you
   view the page with HTTP, not HTTPs.
 * So, clearly there is an issue with the discovery script in Eazyest Gallary and
   storing paths for only HTTP or HTTPs. And seems that when you access the page
   via the other protocol, it defaults to wp-content/upload instead of what it should
   be.
 * Oups…

 * Okay.. so i reinstalled from scratch… backup, install, test, restore, backup 
   install test restore… Exciting day… but fruitful.
 * So… situation:
    1) install clean wordpress 3.6.1. 2) install Eazyest Gallery 
   3) create folder 4) add photo to folder using wordpress/Eazyest Gallery —- at
   this point we are clean and working fine —- 5)Install WordPress HTTPS plugin 
   6)Activate plugin 7)Enable “Force SSL Administration” in HTTPS Plugin —- At this
   point we are now broken —- 8) click on Eazyest Gallery in the admin panel 9) 
   Eazyest Gallery will now scan for new pictures and find an additional duplicate
   and identify it as missing. And add it with a file-last-modify date instead of
   the upload date. Details of that photo show the same path as the original, but
   when viewed through the page, the path is wrong as in my first post.
 * ——
    At this point I will backup my install, start fresh and find a replacement
   for the plugin “WordPress HTTPS” and I don’t intend to debug further unless I
   come to another problem. If somebody would like to debug more, let me know and
   i can spin up an instance.
 * Not resolved, but at least repeatable and avoidable.

 * Not 100% in my quick testing. It displays photos just fine; however, if you click
   the gallery link, it tries to open it as a photo then closes itself. If you click
   the gallery link again, it opens to the page showing your folders.
 * So, close, but not quite 100%.
