SerializingMe

Here it goes the configuration that I’m currently using with the latest version (4.2.4, tweaked it since my last post).

1. WordPress
1.1. Site URL: https://www.external.domain (configuration in database)
1.2. Home: https://www.external.domain (configuration in database)
1.3. Reverse proxy related code in “config-wp.php”

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST'])) {
        $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST'];
}

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP']) && (filter_var($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP'], FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV6) !== FALSE || filter_var($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP'], FILTER_VALIDATE_IP, FILTER_FLAG_IPV4) !== FALSE)) {
        $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP'];
}

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO']) && $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] === 'https') {
        $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on';
}

2. NGINX
2.1. Frontend HTTPS termination configuration

# Proxy pass requests to the internal server
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_pass http://www.internal.domain;

Anyone?
