Hi,
I just enabled HTTPS for my Discourse forum (Let’s Encrypt + nginx on _host system_). No redirection was added so visitors can use HTTP or HTTPS. Everything worked as expected.
Then I tried to enable Google Oauth2 authentication. However, I noticed that Discourse called Google Oauth2 with `redirect_uri` set to the HTTP forum URL while the forum was opened with HTTPS.
How can I fix this? My forum is [https://discussion.listary.com/](https://discussion.listary.com/) . Thanks in advance for any help.

Do You have force https enabled?

No. Is there a Discourse setting for that?

Indeed there is!
In admin \> settings
Search for `force https` and enable it.

Just tried that setting. And unfortunately, it’s still the same.
I think Discourse should be able to detect the original protocol automatically. I don’t know why it doesn’t work in my case.

I got it working. I used Certbot to manage Let’s Encrypt on my host system. It turned out that some rules Certbot added to the nginx config file is not fully compaitible with Discourse docker. I fixed it according to [Run other websites on the same machine as Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/running-other-websites-on-the-same-machine-as-discourse/17247).
