Just made a new forum (woohoo!) with the standard Digital Ocean install, and enabled Let’s Encrypt on setup. I just finished running the setup wizard, and added images / icons through that process (nothing manually added / changed via settings). But I’m getting a mixed content warning re: the favicon when loading the site:

> Mixed Content: The page at ‘[https://athenaeum.antilibrari.es/](https://athenaeum.antilibrari.es/)’ was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure favicon ‘[http://athenaeum.antilibrari.es/uploads/default/original/1X/0342f90c1f8fb1f273f42078cb988fd78ecfab2e.png](http://athenaeum.antilibrari.es/uploads/default/original/1X/0342f90c1f8fb1f273f42078cb988fd78ecfab2e.png)’. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

EDIT: okay, just went to the admin page and saw this:

> - Your website is using SSL. But `[force_https](https://athenaeum.antilibrari.es/admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=force_https)` is not yet enabled in your site settings.

Seems like that’s a setting that should be enabled automatically if I’ve configured the automatic Let’s Encrypt setup during install? Or if not for technical reasons, should add “make sure to enable the `force https` setting” in the install guide.

Only tangentially related — on first hitting the admin page I also see a notice “Your site is missing a short title…” — maybe something else that should be part of the setup wizard.

I wonder if there is a way we can connect success of this step with automatic setting of the site setting @tgxworld?

I think I know a way to do so but I’ll have to try it out to be sure.

This should do it.
