okay, give this a try...  in the https plugin folder, edit the file plugins/wordpress-https\lib\WordPressHTTPS.php...  and at line 342, find this line of code:

                    $updated->setScheme('http');

and change it to

                    if (!is_admin()) $updated->setScheme('http');

think that will get you going... and since that plugin hasnt been updated in years and  years, you shouldnt have to worry about updates over writing your changes...

Incidentally, I would call this a bug with that plugin...  you have force_ssl_admin set to true, yet its converting urls from https to http...  if it had just left them alone, all would be good...  it is misinterpreting those urls as direct links to front end content, which they are not...  all i have done is stop the converting of those urls from https to http...  and if there should actually be one, then the plugin should catch it on the other end when loaded anyways, right?

I really thought I had updated this, but I must've just written the post and not submitted it…
Anyway, you found the right line, but your fix did not work. This ended up working:

if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'sp_ahah') === false) { $updated->setScheme('http'); }

If there is any reason why it wouldn't be a good idea to do it this way, please let me know.

Edit: it appears I actually have spoken too soon - that for some reason fixes the inability to modify user groups, but not the inability to click on the red female icon from the user list in the admin panel (which is accessed via HTTPS), or to moderate threads in the forums themselves (accessed via the public facing forum front-end on HTTP). Back to the drawing board… Any ideas?

it worked when this was done some time ago - but must admit I did not try every possible form or action..  but since it was one you tried, pretty sure I tested it...  and off hand cannot think why it would be any different for that...  when I get a chance, I can try to look at some more, but right now I dont even have that plugin around...  maybe this weekend...
